Your view on bunny rabbits as cute and fluffy might change after you see the Grenade Bunny sculpture. The Grenade Bunny was created by artist Rich DeSimone, aka "Lucky Bunny," in conjunction with Pretty in Plastic Inc.
I never realized how much a bunny rabbit looks like a hand grenade until I saw the Grenade Bunny. The shape of the grenade gives the rabbit its body and head, with the pin located just above the rabbit's eye. In fact, the only additions to the bunny grenade are the legs. There's no word on where this explosive piece of animal art will appear next, although it did make a stop recently in Las Vegas' Joseph Watson Gallery. Hopefully no one pulls the pin before its next show.
