Now For Some Sports: Bunny Hurdles

May 6th, 2011 3 comments

Rabbit show jumping is all the new rage in Europe. The only logical next step is tiny saddles with mouse jockey, chasing a motorised greyhound.

That rabbits like to hop is hardly a secret. But now European rabbit enthusiasts have harnessed their bunnies’ natural talents to create a new spectator sport… rabbit showjumping.

Invented in Sweden in the early Eighties, Kaninhop involves bunnies bouncing their way around courses consisting of several small jumps of varying height and length.

Snoopy, a black-and-white bunny from the German city of Jena, is the star of the local Kaninhop club – and he makes spends his days leaping over all manner of barricades, jumps and rails.
