“Every animal is an individual that cannot be replaced,” said Edwards, a former Playboy model 68-year-old, who added that her pet follows a special diet without which you can die.

Asked what happened by UK media, Edwards said: “There are some very jealous people here. I have my suspicions who is behind this. I’m afraid it’s someone who has prior knowledge ”.

Further, of the operation to steal his pet, a giant continental rabbit, he said: “The thieves broke through a farm fence, unscrewed Darius’ large cage and took him out of his house. security zone. They knew what they were doing. It was stolen on demand ”.

Faced with this delicate situation, the authorities today launched an appeal for citizen collaboration to find the Darius, the “largest living rabbit in the world”, declared in 2010 by Guinness world records.

The first versions indicate that the theft took place on Saturday night.
