Artists Erect Giant Pink Bunny on Mountain

An enormous pink bunny has been erected on an Italian mountainside where it will stay for the next 20 years.



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.

Horse survives after jumping into oncoming car in Israel

A horse in Israel has escaped with minor injuries after jumping into a moving car.

A tourist captured video footage of three horses galloping down a main road in the Galilee region of northern Israel.



The horses — one of which appears to be a foal — ran into the path of an oncoming car.

The two smaller horses swerved to avoid the vehicle, but the third — a coloured larger horse bringing up the rear — made the last minute decision to jump over it.

The horse leaped straight at the car putting his front legs through the windshield before jumping out and over the roof.

Amazingly, according to local reports, both the horse and the occupants of the car only suffered minor cuts and bruises.
