Yes, I know how to say “rabbit” in French.  It’s not a big deal.

Also! (I learned this from my twitter friend @the_turtle, who breeds Flemish Giants) - the name Coney Island comes from the Dutch word for rabbit, which was Englishized into Coney.  Also rabbit in Spanish is Conejo which means they have a common root somewhere.  

In 10th grade I learned that rabbits are from the order “lagomorphs” and then I got excited when ISU had a building called Lagomarcino Hall.

I just know a lot of facts about rabbits! And I have two trophies for rabbit showmanship from 4H! Again, not a big deal.
