Year of the lagomorph

The other day I went to a Chinese New Year's party. In honor of this I want to point out that this is the year of the lagomorph (really!). According to Wikipedia, the first lagomorph fossils are indeed from East Asia (China), so this is appropriate. I was also stunned at some of the differences between lagomorphs and rodents- check it out.

Of course, lagomorphs are another name for rabbits.
