She gives a new meaning to ‘Playboy Bunny’.
A former Playboy model and famous bunny breeder is offering a sum of $ 1,300 for the return of her world record-keeping bunny, which was stolen from his home in Worcestershire over the weekend.
A very sad day. Guinness’ world record Darius was stolen from his home, ” tweeted British Annette Edwards of her 10-year-old Continental Rabbit, which is 4 feet-4 inches long, holds the Guinness World Record for the longest rabbit in the world.
“The police are doing their best to find out who took him. There is a reward of £ 1,000, ‘Edwards added.
The identity of the burglars is still unclear.
The theft is a heartbreaking blow for the 68-year-old mother of 10 and the former glamor model, who has held the world record since 2008 with four of her animals winning the title, reports Daily Mail.
And although Darius currently owns the colossal cotton tail crown, he is obscured by his offspring, Lewis and Daisy May, who both measure more than 4 feet tall.
Unfortunately, 35-pound Darius is too old to breed now – but his large-sized offspring once sold for nearly $ 350.
Raising such an enormous rabbit is no small feat. Edwards spends nearly $ 7,000 to provide her bunnies with carrots and apples to maintain their massive size. She says the secret to breeding them big is to make sure the parents are big and not cross.
Edwards is so in love with bunnies that she struggled to become one: she allegedly dropped more than $ 13,500 on cheek implants, chin implants and a breast augmentation in an attempt to become like Jessica Rabbit, the cartoon sex spot of ‘Who Framed Roger Rabbit’, to appear.
A West Mercia police spokesman confirmed to the Daily Mail that they were investigating the bunny theft: “We are appealing for information following the theft of an award-winning rabbit from his home in Stoulton, Worcestershire,” the officer said. Daren Riley told the outlet. “It is believed that the Continental Giant rabbit was stolen from the fence in the garden of the property of its owners overnight on Saturday, April 10 to April 11.”
Meanwhile, this is not the first time the tragedy has hit one of Edwards’ beloved rabbits. In 2017, Darius’ son Simon – who was then predicted to become the world’s biggest rabbit – died in a mysterious way during a United Airlines flight from London to customers in the USA.
The airline dug themselves deeper after cremating the 3-foot-long rabbit without the owner’s permission, unleashing the suspicion that they were hiding something.
“The whole thing stinks of a cover-up,” the then-jumping mad breeder buzzed, adding that she “sent rabbits around the world and such a thing has never happened before.”
United Airlines was later sued by Simon’s prospective buyers in Iowa.
