A huge rabbit just went viral for simply doing its job.
Just like I have in the late past times , I will keep preaching my true statement — airports are , in my hierarchy of places , the closest thing to an alternating dimension I have ever witness . Think of all thestrange characters , theodd office , theunexpected side quests , and even the most surprisingplane neighbors .
If the combining of all those traits does n’t make you go " galaxy brain " mode and convince you that airports are the most iconically distract place on earth , then I might actually have something else for you . You bed , just to add some fresh spicy evidence to the theory .
This week , a rabbit in a baby buggy was spotted atSan Francisco International Airport . It was wearing a hat , too . A photograph of the effective bunny — as opposed to its much more famed similitude — fail viral on X ( formerly Twitter ) , where the poster called everybody to the attending of the odd sighting . " [ flushed alarm emoji ] I am at the airport and there is a giant rabbit in a stroller I repeat a gargantuan rabbit in a stroller [ red alarm emoji ] , " they wrote in the subtitle , which was in all - caps , for an appropriately dramatic effect .

As it turns out , that ’s just Alex , the therapy rabbit . We have a go at it that because Alex replied to the original placard ’s ribbon , and decided to introduce themselves while respond to a series of questions from another 10 substance abuser . " We work at airports @flySFO and @FlySJC , " the bunny allegedly " write . " " But when we fly we go @AlaskaAir by choice .. yes we are fully certified therapy through the @sfspca and they call me Alex the great . "
Apparently , Alex the Great does this to help nervous fliers deal with their locomotion - related anxieties . OnInstagram , the liberal hare — whoreportedlyweighs in at 28 pounds , by the fashion — flaunt almost 20,000 followers , and their provender is filled with photos and video of them spreading love and joy in multiple locations including , of grade , the airport .
If Alex ’s therapeutical mien surprises you , just bang that it ’s becoming a much more common matter than you’re able to imagine . Denver ’s aerodrome , for example , has a whole program in place named CATS ( Canine Airport Therapy Squad ) feature more than 80 dog and one cat serving as comfort pet . The service , which is free , come around the gates to permit nervous masses pet the animals — you may check out the integral squadright here .
