The 200-foot-long toy rabbit lies on the side of the 5,000 foot high Colletto Fava mountain in northern Italy's Piedmont region.



Viennese art group Gelatin designed the giant soft toy and say it was "knitted by dozens of grannies out of pink wool".



Group member Wolfgang Gantner said: "It's supposed to make you feel small, like Gulliver. You walk around it and you can't help but smile."



And Gelatin members say the bunny is not just for walking around - they are expecting hikers to climb its 20 foot sides and relax on its belly.



The giant rabbit is expected to remain on the mountain side until 2025.

It was knitted by grannies! They only use their powers for good, not evil.

The rabbit has certainly got a smaller willy. Unless it's only got one leg.

Well, yeah.. but this bunny was created by grannies to FIGHT evil! It shall watch over all of Italy smelling funny and dripping brown water and bits of fluff on evildoers!

I don't think it wsa really knitted with granny-power at all:

Written by: The Guardian


"Behind a hill, as if knitted by giant grandmothers, lies this vast rabbit, to make you feel as small as a daisy," said group member Wolfgang Gantner. The artists want people to scale the rabbit's sides and fall asleep on its stomach…
