How to speak to your rabbit




Dear Spies, 

Ever wondered what language rabbits speak?

The writer, Richard Adams, who wrote the bestselling novel of rabbit life, "Watership Down"  had a few ideas about what rabbits might have to say. He called the language "Lapine." You can read some of the words here:

Of course, if you've ever spent any time with a rabbit, you will have noticed they are rather silent animals. But I'm sure they understand each other!

Till next time, frithath!
