More On Milan's Linate Airport Bunnies

As we told you earlier today, if you are flying into or out of Milan today, watch out for the bunnies with stars in their eyes. Linate airport runways have been stormed by hares who are interfering with radar. What are these rabbits doing? Mostly taking part in mating competitions that include chases and "boxing," in which females hit males to test their stamina (and readiness for fatherhood?)
Yesterday, some 57 hares were shooed off the runway. How do you say "Get a room!" in Italian?
Sunday's hare-speed-dating event caused a 3-hour delay and left the airport grounds littered with oyster-flavored carrots and Marvin Gaye albums.
