This thin human-sized rabbit is sitting on a large rock, in deep contemplation. The rabbits large ears are upright. His face is turned down slightly, with his right "arm" bent and under his chin. Both legs are bent forward and on the rock in front of him. The rabbit and rock are on a circular foundation about 4 ft. wide and 6 inches tall.
