π§¬π° GLOW-IN-THE-DARK RABBITS? THIS ISN'T SCIENCE FICTION.
Sadly, this is real.
Scientists and commercial breeders are already experimenting with genetically modifying companion animals for purely cosmetic purposesβincluding rabbits whose DNA has been altered to make them glow in the dark.
At Bunny World Foundation, we believe rabbits are not novelty items, collectibles, or living science experiments. They are intelligent, sensitive, emotional beings who deserve compassion and respectβnot genetic manipulation for someone's amusement or profit.
Meanwhile, California shelters are already overwhelmed. Every week, we rescue abandoned rabbits from animal shelters, parks, backyards, and neglect cases. Thousands of healthy rabbits lose their homes every year because people purchase animals on impulse and then discard them when the novelty wears off.
Let's focus on finding loving homes for the thousands of rabbits already waiting in shelters and rescuesβnot creating new ones in laboratories.
That's why Bunny World Foundation proudly supports California Assembly Bill 1382 β the Ethics Over Aesthetics Act.
This important legislation would prohibit the sale of companion animals that have been genetically modified for cosmetic or novelty purposes that do not benefit the animal.
β
AB 1382 has already passed the California Assembly unanimously.
π¨ Now it needs your help to make it through the Senate Appropriations Committee.

π Every phone call matters.
π§ Every email matters.
π° Every rabbit matters.
π Rabbits don't need to glow in the dark.
They need safe homes.
They need loving families.
They need protection from exploitation.
Please help ensure that animals are treated as living beingsβnot products engineered for the next social media trend.
Together, let's choose ethics over aesthetics. β€οΈπ
P.S. ππ Hi, I'm Bul Bul!
My family says my fluffy ears and wild bunny hair already make me pretty special. I don't need anyone to change my DNA to make me glow in the dark. I already have everything I've ever wantedβa loving home, endless hay, plenty of binkies, and humans who love me just the way I am.
Every rabbit deserves that chance.
Please help protect rabbits like me. β€οΈ
