1000 Origami Bunnies

Description

The story goes that whoever folds 1000 paper cranes will be granted one wish by a mystical crane.

If I fold 1000 origami bunnies perhaps I will be granted a wish too…

I wish for a myxo vaccine.

Sadly in Australia there is no vaccination for pet bunnies against the fatal myxomatosis virus, because of this far too many pet bunnies are dying and their owners are suffering.

The 1000 origami bunnies project aims to remember the lives of the beautiful bunnies lost to myxomatosis and highlight the need for a myxo vaccine in Australia.

We have pet rabbits, and I feel great sympathy for our fellow owners in Australia. This is a beautiful piece, and we hope that you get your wish!
