Remember reading The Naked Ape by Desmond Morris? Individuals die while so far the clade is immortal Because evolution put boobs on the female pectoralBoobs are a sexual attraction One peep spurs manly action And frontal copulation helps them find the right portal  QUOTA - RABBIT

Oh, I can assure you that poem was written from the heart. I used to catch bunnies, mostly to sell, but we always had one a week, either as a stew (if it was an older one,) or a pie. Occasionally, if we got a really young one, my wife would coat it in butter and herbs, wrap it in foil, and very bengtly roast ift. Mmmmmm!!
Now, I don't catch rabbits and the ones you get in the butchers shop are expensive, and usually cage-bred, which don't have anything like the flavour.

I've actually never had it, but it does sound delicious.
Over here their "cuteness" prohibits a lot of eating.
So often even on TV they show some cowboy getting the
critter, and later roasting it. Probably all plastic
or rubber critters. Because there is always a notice
at the end of the show: "No animals were hurt in the
production of this film/show".

Oh, the hypocrisy of humankind! No-one ate a hamburger without hurting (i.e., killing!)an animal! Or a whole host of other foods, for that matter.
If you don't like anmals being hurt become a vegetarian.
(And there's nothing wrong on that, either)

Or wooly mammoth early on in our history. I think they are
kind of cute too.

Well, they were victims of being in the wrong place at the wrong time. Mind you, I s'pose you could say that of the coneys that strayed into my snares .........
