334 Bunnies Found in Woman's YardJune 28th 2009 10:28
A New Mexico woman with an affinity for rabbits has run afoul of the law after her rascally pets started multiplying like, well, rabbits. Rio Rancho police said Monday that Nancy Haseman was cited under an ordinance that allows five pets per household after an animal control officer found 334 bunnies hopping around in her yard. The officer spotted the animals last month after a neighbor complained about rabbits eating her garden. Haseman says her husband rescued a rabbit 12 years ago after a neighbor abandoned it, then the couple began rescuing more bunnies. Apparantly she did keep the males and females seperated but the males hopped the fence and things got out of control after that. Those bunnies can multiply!
