Australia has been burdened with a wild rabbit population disrupting its native ecology since the 1800s.  But now they face yet another rabbit problem in Sydney.

This time, a group of feral rabbits, which started out as someone’s pets that they dumped, is taking over the grassy area under Sydney Harbour Bridge.

While tourists find the furry critters to be endearing, especially as Easter approaches, something will need to be done to stop the family from breeding further.

Feral rabbit population booms in cities have been increasingly more common, as seen in many cities like Kelowna, Richmond, Helsinki and more.

A wild rabbit has grown bold and has begun venturing into the rhino habitat at the Taronga Western Plains Zoo in New South Wales, Australia (400 km northwest of Sydney).  The rabbit, called Robby, waits for the rhinos to eat their fill and then eats the seeds.

Once her husband and three children had safely evacuated, Leanne Bieg of South Australia ran back inside her burning home to rescue their new pet rabbit.  The rabbit survived, and the family is being treated for smoke inhalation. Unfortunately, the fire ravaged the house and caused $200,000 worth of damage. It may have to be demolished.
