WATCH: Paralyzed bunny gets new lease on life
Credit: Overlook Acres/Facebook -- The bunny on its new wheelchair gives kisses to one of the workers.
According to the Overlook Acres Facebook account, over the past few weeks, they’ve had about six litters of bunnies born.
They write that they lost many of the bunnies due to the extremely cold temperatures in upstate New York.
Then, another worker found another bunny in the barn, stiff and half frozen. The bunny was brought inside and after a few days, they found him to be eating normally, but unable to use his back legs.
“Normally this circumstance would result in putting the animals down and out of his misery but he didn’t [sic] seem to be in any pain. He managed to still pull himself around the floor and was moving faster than the other babies.”
“He is as happy as can be and loves his speed,” the post reads.
Since it was posted on February 17, the post has racked up more than 17 million views, 400,000 likes, and 396,000 shares.
Overlook Acres has also decided to write a children's book based on Wheels. If you'd like to help them in their venture, check out their Kickstarter page.
