    If you keep that in mind you can see that both pictures were taken that way.

    Miss Hoppy and I are well aware of photographers' tricks, and of perspective - as my BFA is in Illustration, and required an understanding of technical illustration, I could probably bore you to tears on the subject.

    But as this page says, the world's largest rabbit is 11.5 k, that's about 25 pounds, so the claims of the one saying he's 88 pounds is just exaggerating!

    Valid or not, they sure are cuties!

    Perhaps, Piper's trying to top them? He's 13lbs and taller than K'Cee (and she's a big cat)!

    In the Chilton Humane Society when I was looking for a dog, before Autumn, they had several giant rabbits there. They probably weighed close to 25 pounds.

    Herman is real. He made the national news on either CBS or NBC this weekend.

    Nope, it's not a trick. I saw Herman on tv last night on Entertainment Tonight (ET). He IS real and weighs 19 lbs and is still growing. His ears are 10 inches long. They put him up next to a regular bunny and he looks like a small dog!!!

    Definitely no trick photography there!

    Never had an issue with the 19-pound guy, it's the 88-pound claim we (Hoppy and I) didn't believe!

    I don't know if it's real or not, but he's a really handsome man, for sure! I love his big feet....
