German Grey giants

Featured Replies

German giant rabbits were once believed to be things of legend and lore, but in 2007, a giant rabbit by the name of Robert took the pet world by storm. The prodigious blimp of a bunny weighed in at a whopping 23 pounds and when held on its hind legs, it was the size of a five year old child.

I would love to get one of these guys as a pet, but I don't have the luxury to go to Germany and buy one. Does anyone here every heard/have one, and if you do can you tell me about it. These guys are just like most things I like, big.

They are bred for food. There was a whole north Korean scandal with them too.

  • 2. In 2006, Jong-il learned that a man in Germany breeds giant rabbits. He found them delightful and decided they were the key to solving North Korea's widespread hunger problem:

    So Kim gets in touch with 68-year-old Karl Szmolinsky of Berlin, the world's foremost breeder of giant rabbits, and says he wants Szmolinsky to come to Pyongyang and set up a farm to breed these rabbits. For Kim believes that the meat yielded by these rabbits will end his people's starvation. [...]

    Undeterred, Kim pays for 12 rabbits, at a cost of about $115 each. He tells Szmolinsky that the rabbits will be kept at a petting zoo in Pyongyang and, in a few months, Szmolinsky will be flown in to help really set up a farm for breeding.

    In February of 2007, about five or six months later, Szmolinsky gets a call from a North Korean official canceling that trip. Why? Because, Szmolinsky believes, Kim couldn't resist... and ate the giant rabbits to celebrate his birthday.
