Jimmy Carter's Bunny Rabbit Attack

Jimmy Carter’s ‘Killer Bunny’

All presidents face confrontation. The media attacks. The opposing party attacks. And 20 years ago, as Jimmy Carter found, a bunny rabbit can also attack.
The so-called “killer bunny” that came after Carter as he was fishing near his home in Plains, Ga., in mid-1979 marks an interesting moment in the history of White House controversy. Certainly, his staffers will never forget.
“I think a lot of people in politics have gone to school on this bizarre little event,” recalls former press secretary Jody Powell.
“More than anything else, it shows the extent to which an insignificant incident can snowball and end up in newspapers and news shows across the country.”
...
“After writing my Carter biography I can tell you,” Brinkley says, “more people ask about the bunny than about the Camp David Accord or the Panama Canal Treaty. Strange.”
