In this richly illustrated book, Victoria Dickenson explores the natural and cultural history of this most familiar creature, from the giant extinct rabbits of Minorca to the tiny endangered Volcano rabbits of Mexico. The rabbit is prey, chased by enemies from eagles to foxes to domestic cats. But it is also a trickster who outwits all rivals and escapes every trap.
