Nanaimo RCMP are investigating and are also probing the theft of a mother rabbit and four bunnies on June 29.

She says it was hanging on until the opening of the Vancouver Island Exhibition, later this month, but was likely in its last year of operation, unless corporate sponsors can be found. (CKAY)
