Your Weekly Dose Of Racing Awwwww

Leave it to the Swedes to not only make affordable dorm room and bachelor pad furniture, but it seems they’ve also invented the most adorable form of animal competition not called the Puppy Bowl. Known as Kaninhop, this Swedish sensation involves bunny rabbits show-jumping as if they were miniature fluffy horses with big, floppy ears.
But the bunny in the box, Daily Mail

Over the past few decades to sport has spread far from its Scandinavian homeland and clubs have now sprung up in several other European countries, the U.S., Canada and even Japan.
Rules vary from country to country, but generally the more jumps a rabbit clears the higher its score. There is also sometimes a time element to competitions.

You also lose points if your rabbit starts a bunny orgy in the middle of the course, but you gain points for how many female rabbits your male impregnates. It’s pretty complex. I just wish we had a video of bunnies competing in Kaninhop set to Joe Esposito’s “You’re the Best”…
