| A '''rabbit''' was a small [[Earth]] [[mammal]]. | |
| | |
| == Rabbits on Earth ==
| |
| On [[Earth]], rabbits were so prized for their meat that they could inspire [[poacher|poaching]]. This certainly happened in [[England]] around the time of the [[Great Fire of London]]. ([[TV]]: ''[[The Visitation (TV story)|The Visitation]]'') Centuries later, [[Ernie Clements]], the poacher who worked the grounds of [[Marcus Scarman]]'s house, caught a rabbit shortly before spotting a [[robot mummy]] removing itself from one of his traps. ([[TV]]: ''[[Pyramids of Mars (TV story)|Pyramids of Mars]]'')

| | |
| Rabbits were also kept as pets. The [[Fifth Doctor]], [[Nyssa]] and [[Tegan Jovanka]] once met a boy named [[Flavius Theodoric|Rithros]] who had lost his pet rabbit. The Doctor used his [[celery]] stick to lure the animal back to his master. ([[PROSE]]: ''[[Goths and Robbers (short story)|Goths and Robbers]]'') As a child [[Yasmin Khan]] begged her parents for a pet rabbit but was given a [[Mister Hoppy|stuffed rabbit]] instead as her father [[Hakim Khan|Hakim]] was [[Allergy|allergic]] to animal [[fur]]. ([[PROSE]]: ''[[The Secret in Vault 13 (novel)|The Secret in Vault 13]]'') [[Charlotte Pollard]] also had a pet rabbit named Mopsy. ([[AUDIO]]: ''[[Zagreus (audio story)|Zagreus]]'')

| [[Magician]]s used to pull rabbits out of [[hat]]s. ([[TV]]: ''[[The Sontaran Stratagem (TV story)|The Sontaran Stratagem]]'', [[COMIC]]: ''[[The Hat Trick (comic story)|The Hat Trick]]'') In 1923 the magician [[Miraclo]] attempted this feat, believing it would make him famous. He was unaware that he had been manipulated by the rabbit- like [[Lepus Warrior|Lepus Warriors]] who had turned the hat into a [[warp gate]], that would allow them to cross into his dimension in a attempted invasion. ([[COMIC]]: ''[[The Hat Trick (comic story)|The Hat Trick]]'')

| |
| | |
| In [[1562]], the [[Tenth Doctor]] came across a rabbit in [[England]] and, believing it to be a [[Zygon]] in disguise, gave it an intimidating speech, only to realise that it was just an ordinary rabbit, amending it to a "general warning". ([[TV]]: ''[[The Day of the Doctor (TV story)|The Day of the Doctor]]'')
