I can't believe that this was the result of an actual investigation. I mean wow, detectives must be really bored down in NZ.

And the crazy thing is that he's like a big-time financial advisor. I was expecting some sort of crazy redneck who was caught in the act, not a rich person who had to be investigated

What a bizarre story. I feel kind of bad for the guy.

McMahon was put under surveillance after pet store staff noticed he had marks consistent with rabbit scratches on his face.

Ewwww!! Rabbitlingus!!

(Actually, the taxonomy of pet rabbits is Oryctolagus cuniculus... so, cuniculingus?)

The word you're looking for, I think, is bunnilingus.

it's not something that will stop either

Not until all the rabbits have been sodomized. Then, then will come time for the ferrets.

In my day if you wanted to fuck a rabbit you could do so in a way that didn't kill it. And you didn't need three, either. You had to get your rabbit (not plural! not three! one!) from a magazine, too. Bah on this wasteful new generation with their disposable incomes, disposable rabbits, and abundance of rabbit fuck shops.

This rabbits that we fucked were members of the family back in my day. Sure we fucked them, but with respect!

He sodomized the rabbits, and I did not speak out because I am not a rabbit.

They lived longer than a week at least, is what I'm saying. You wasters. You probably throw out perfectly good salad once it goes a little brown, too. You'd never survive the depression!

And let me say, finally, few things made you happy during the darkest days of the Depression than the love of a good mailorder ready-to-fuck rabbit. Only thing better than bathtub gin!

And the Pet Shop Boys were no more.

Once there was a little bunny who wanted to run away.
So he said to his human-lover, I am running away.
If you run away, said his human lover, I will run after you because you are my little bunny.

If you run after me, said the little bunny, I will become a crocus in a hidden garden.
If you become a crocus in a hidden garden, said his human-lover, I will become a gadener and I will find you, and then we will make sweet love.

On a more serious note, I was astounded by the one person in TFA lauding the store owner who now required owner's papers for anyone purchasing a rabbit.

This is the kind of thing that Bruce Shneier called "Movie Plot Security" (or something) and is terribly ineffective at combating the threat of animal abuse as a whole.

Certainly, in that one shop, it is now more difficult to purchase rabbits for abuse. However, consequently, it is also more difficult for well-meaning citizens to purchase rabbits at all.

Taken to an extreme, if you were required to provide licenses and registrations when purchasing all kinds of pets from pet shops, it would be exceptionally invasive, unneccessary, and ineffective, as there would still be farms and private breeders to sell to you. Plus, there would be the overhead costs to the government of keeping a registry of people & pets.

All to stop one man from messin' with a rabbit.

(Also, to all you laughing at this thread, I might remind you that rape is never funny.)

He was arrested in August after a three-week police surveillance operation and originally remanded in custody after dismembered rabbit carcasses were found in a lane outside his central city office.


Another case of criminal stupidity. After you rape, torture, and dismember your bunny victim you might want to do something else with the parts besides toss them into the street. Maybe think about getting a pet boa constricter.
Or put them in the freezer. Or at the very least bag up the remains and put them in the trash.

Pet stores are horrible places to get pets from anyways. Forcing people to get pets from a breeder would curtail impulse purchases which lead to abused or abandoned animals, as well as cut down on the number of animal "mills" that mistreat breeding animals. And now, add sodomized rabbits to the list of reasons why pet stores are bad.

Breeders, in general, do it less as a business and more as a hobby, and are more like to care about who is getting their pets and notice if a man comes back repeatedly for more bunnies.

Sorry, no funny bunny puns.

Speaking as a New Zealander, I don't see any humour in torturing, murdering, and abusing small animals. This is a horrible story, and a terribly worded FPP.
