I have to wonder why these bunnies are attacking cars … these lines and wires they chew on, have got to taste bad to even to the little rabbits …

Maybe the airport noise is driving them mad, and they’re actually attacking what they perceive as an enemy …

And being that the sky holds many illusions … just maybe the ground area do too … and just maybe …. these little vengeful critters .. are little “gremlin imps”,  in bunny illusion

Wild rabbits wreak havoc on parked cars at Denver International Airport

AAJanuary 26, 2013 DENVER -  Travelers have a warning for drivers who park their cars near Denver International Airport (DIA). Rabbits are chewing the wires under many cars costing owners a lot of money. The rabbits get in and chew the brake lines, the clutch lines and other wiring. Local car repair shops estimates they can do thousands of dollars in damage. “When I had the trouble with the oil light coming on, the dealer told me the wires that controlled the air conditioning were chewed,” said Ken Blum, one car owner who knows all about the not so funny bunny business at DIA. Blum has had to have repairs done on his car twice due to rabbit damage and he estimates the cost at approximately $700. “I saw no signs…nothing to tell me, ‘Hey, beware’,” Blum told CBS4. “My insurance didn’t cover it, the manufacturer didn’t cover it.” This isn’t a new problem at the airport. CBS4 first started covering hungry hares in 1999. They were munching on the wires of de-icing equipment. Now it seems they’ve moved to the outlying parking lots. CBS4 contacted airport officials about the problem. They said that only a small percentage of the people who park out there ever complain of rabbit caused car problems. They also told CBS4 that United States Department of Agriculture Wildlife Services agents patrol the parking lots and remove rabbits when they see them. CBS

  • Rabbits like rodents have large front incisors that must be kept from overgrowing and as such will chew anything plastic or rubbery to keep them worn down. They should be providing the rabbits with an “alternative” more natural source of chewing material.

  • Rabbits should get food stamps from the government.

    That would take care of the problem.

  • This is not normal. They are mentally disturbed by HARP or Planet Vibrational changes
