But, it was enough to look at this picture for us to rethink that, because oh my god, look at those eyes, we can see death in them.

    Font - gallusrostromegalus Follow Jack Rabbits are North American Hares and they're the WORST to encounter at night becuase: You all know how big a rabbit is. Jack Rabbits and hares are much bigger. they're the size of large cats or small dogs or just-walking-age children.

We love Alice in Wonderland, don't get us wrong, but the rabbit with the clock used to give us nightmares. Thank you, tumblr, for the kind warning. Now, we'll go pee ourselves.

    Font - You area an overdevloped monkey and your prefrontal cortex is capable of some amazing feats but it runs very slowly compared to the reflexes of a rabbit and you're frozen as you desperately scramble for the appropriate course of action, hands feeling thick and useless, mouth dry and feet imeasurably heavy there's no way you'd outrun THESE, god there's a rabies outbreak going around that shit's not curable- The Dog LUNGES

    Font - It's only the briefest of movements but the animal you'd picked out for his gangly legs and floppy ears and goofy smile is suddenly a dark shape of muscle and teeth and had flung himself at the horrible goblin rabbits faster than mere physics should dictate, appearing in the circle of the flashlight for only the briefest of moments before the jolt from the leash makes you stumble and the light falters The Jack Rabbits Scatter Vanishing into the faintly starlit sagebrush in as so many fain
