I’ve always liked bunny rabbits, those cutest of little land mammals that lived under the sheds of my childhood neighborhood, driving everyone up a wall with their eating of flowers and greenery. Oh how they were hated by everyone else! I though (and think) it’s cute to see little nibbles here and there and everywhere, and yes, since you asked, I AM a gardener as well. But most people want them to die, especially people who plant gardens and wear real fur coats. You know who doesn’t want them to die? Designer Dave Whitley. He’s a bad mother and he knows that bunny rabbits can be bad mothers too. Battletime begin now!

In this post there are three posters, each of them with a carrot turned into a weapon, printed simply with a couple colors on a textured color background. Grenade, pistol, knife.

Some words from Whitley on this project:

Design Against Fur My entry for the 2010 ‘Design Against Fur’ competition held by the Fur Free Alliance. I wanted to convey the message of cruelty towards rabbits without directly showing blood, guts, or rabbits.

Design Brief: ‘Design a creative, compelling poster or animation that delivers the compassionate message that the wearing of fur is cruel and unnecessary. We want the modern world to celebrate all animals and not victimize them by killing them to wear their skins – and we want you to help us make that happen.’

I must mention that I have a bunny in my apartment home right now. Her name is Santi Gold and she is a vicious bitch. These weapons show how bunnies can get right up in your face if you try to take their skin off of them, right up in your face with their jumping and their powerful chomping, human flesh chomping teeth.

Also the posters look nice!
