April 18, 2017 03:06 - 14 minutes - 13.6 MBThe Rabbit's Foot So why are rabbits thought to be lucky?

Others carry a rabbit’s foot to ward off arthritis and rheumatism Experts cannot agree why the rabbit's foot has become synonymous with good luck.

Again, the Altex Rabbit is a relatively new breed, produced for meat and not recognised as a show ra...
