Rabbit

One thing has not changed in France: Everywhere in the country and wherever in the villages a few yards of space can be found, there are rabbit hutches, rabbits being famously reproductive and inexpensive to raise. One often sees people wandering along the roadsides, in the fields, or on the hillsides with great burlap bags collecting weeds and herbs, clipping tender shoots from the branches of trees and shrubs, to supplement the rabbits’ regular diet of kitchen debris, soups made of stale bread crusts, and whatnot.
