I've only read about the Leshy in books, so it was really cool to read about an encounter with one! Probably because I'm not stupid enough to go trespassing into random woods. Or cruel enough to kill a rabbit. (Actually, where I come from rabbits are illegal. So it's never been an issue for me anyhow, even if I didn't love animals so much.)

Wait, rabbits are illegal? How's that work?

You can only keep rabbits in Queensland if you're a magician using them in your act, or a scientist experimenting on them. We've got a rabbit-proof fence as well. They're not welcome here, due to destroying crops. Australians in general often don't like rabbits, but Queensland's actually outlawed them.

That was going to be my guess, was Australia...

If it's the same way that the unhoused are "illegal" in some regions, you just give them a one-way bus ticket to somewhere else. 🤷🏻
