Snippets from the news…

I pulled this off of Google, by asking for any funny news stories…

In an unexpected turn of events on April 23, 2026, three baby rabbits became unlikely seafaring adventurers after stowing away in a container in Dundee, Scotland, and ending up 93 miles off the coast of Lincolnshire on a North Sea oil rig. 

Here are the highlights of this “odd news” story:

  • The Stowaways: The bunnies, seeking a warm spot, hid in a container that was trucked to Aberdeen and loaded onto the FS Aquarius vessel, which delivered them to the Valaris Norway drilling rig.
  • Deck Patrol: Two of the bunnies were spotted hopping around the pipe deck of the rig and were immediately rescued by the crew, who set them up with a warm bed and vegetables in the radio room.
  • The Third Stowaway: While the first two were being transported back to the mainland, the Aquarius returned to the rig, where a third bunny was discovered hiding inside a forklift.
  • Safe Return: All three were safely reunited at New Arc Wildlife Rescue in Aberdeenshire, Scotland, where staff reported they were doing well and “eating us out of house and home,” according to the 2026 reports. 

The rescue charity praised the offshore crews for their “maximum effort” in caring for the intrepid trio during their accidental 22-hour ocean adventure. 

All is well in the world of small creatures. That is, unless the bunnies were nefarious bandits, seeking new lands to conquer! In that case, we may need to form a delegation, of sorts, to govern the bands of wild naughty bunnies roaming the high seas, lol.
