This is bizarre - a a bunny makes headlines in Germany for being born without ears, and in the course of all the publicity about him, he's killed by a cameraman who accidentally stepped on him.
It's like the Circle of [Media] Life
In this photo taken Wednesday, March 14, 2012, a two-week old earless bunny sits on the hands of a keeper at the zoo in Limbach-Oberfrohna, eastern Germany. The bunny that was a rising star on Germany's celebrity animal scene had its 15 minutes of fame brought to an abrupt end when he was accidentally stepped on by a television cameraman. The fate of 17-day-old Til the bunny with a genetic defect was plastered across German newspapers on Thursday, the same day a small zoo in Saxony was to have presented him to the world at a press conference. The unidentified cameraman who had been filming the bunny in its enclosure Wednesday told Bild he hadn't seen Til, who had buried himself in hay, when he took a step backward.
