When I heard about Denmark’s “island of wild rabbits”, I knew I had to check it out. And the isle of Endelave did not disappoint. Rabbits in fields, rabbits in gardens, rabbits on the road, rabbits emerging from wild rose bushes – everywhere my companion and I looked played out like one of the happier scenes from Watership Down, before all the trouble starts.
“So there are thousands of them here?” I asked Birgit, our guide to Endelave’s Kanino, the island’s new 13-mile coast walk (kanin being Danish for rabbit).
