This rabbit will only hop when and where she wants to

Brandywine the rabbit brought her own flair to a recent rabbit hopping contest at the Calgary Zoo.

In many ways, the behaviour of pets can be predicted. Dogs bark, parrots chirp, cats meow, and rabbits hop. That's just the way it is. 

But one rabbit in Canada wants to change this idea, and show that rabbits don't have to jump if they don't want to.

At a recent rabbit hopping event (yes, that is a real sport for rabbits) at the Calgary Zoo in Canada, one rabbit named Brandywine decided she would get past the hurdles on the obstacle course in front of her on her own terms. 

She is a rabbit, yes, but that doesn't mean she will hop for you on command. Brandywine is here to tip the rabbit hopping industry on its head!

And there is a lesson to be learned here, too. No matter what kind of obstacle you may face this week, you are capable of finding a way over, around, and through it.
