Rabbits make archaeological discovery
Posted by MelSkunk (Melissa Drake) on Tue 13 Aug 2002 - 16:33
A bunch of renovating bunnies in the UK have been cleaning house in their warren, and in the process have kicked out pieces of a 14th century manor house window. The original manor was demolished in the 15th century when the owners built a new house and found the old one blocked the view. Protecting the artifacts for the future could mean the rabbits might be out of house and home.

"NO Hazel! Don't dig THERE! You'll bring destruction to the warren!"
"Don't be silly, Fiver..."
Shoulda listened to Fiver.
"Move to the lee side of the manor! The lee side!"
Oh, wait... wrong species.

I've heard that some fairly important archeological discoveries have been made as a result of bunnies, badgers and foxes digging up artifacts by accident.....
