Rabbits are lagomorphs, not rodents. Not that I would expect a medieval enchanter to know that.
When the robo-bunnies get invasive, we'll send in robot coyotes, etc.
Ultimately: robot pythons
The robots will run python.
"Invasive Python and the Holy Grail"
Bunnies aren't real.
😭
So when I set up dog fights that's "illegal" and "morally reprehensible" but python-robot bunny fights are fine?! I've never heard of such bullshit
J/k
Happened similar in Croatia, they brought mongooses and now 1 whole island is full of them (they are not natives to Croatia) but at least no more snakes there.
Just bring in some eagles to take care of the mongooses.
Wait, this isn't "guess the Simpsons episode"?
As with most news stories, you are still welcome to guess the Simpsons episode that predicted these events.
I'm not good with episode names but I kind of remember the plot: Bart got an egg that hedges into a reptile. Skinner wants to kill it because it's an invasive species but Bart does everything to save his little new friend. Later they find out that it eats animals (birds?) that are a problem and Bart gets celebrated by the Mayor for saving the city. Lisa gets a dialogue with the Mayor at the end where she is like "but this doesn't solve anything. What about the new invasive species?" and Mayor just lists new invasive species that will eat the old ones, ending with gorillas that will just freeze to death in winter.
I haven't watched the episode in a while so I might be wrong in some parts
Edit: I've looked it up, it's "Bart the Mother", s10e3
Cybuns!
LOOK AT THE BONES!
WHAT DID YOU CALL ME?!?
the most foul, cruel, and bad-tempered rodent you ever set eyes on.
Bring forth the holy hand grenade of Antioch!
You’re goddam right I am.
