The children of the 70’s and 80’s must certainly recall the dreadful, shocking and brutal cartoon depicting rabbits fighting to their death. This story had been taken from the novel of Richard Adams. But Adams’s novel hadn’t focused on these aspects at all. It had highlighted these rabbits as being a part of the regular lives of the countryside.
These herbivores rabbits were on a journey to find new burrows and tunnels for themselves as one of them had got an accurate prediction that their old homes were going to be destroyed very soon. The BBC and Netflix networks are going to release a new CG-animated version of this story during this Christmas. In this series they are going to present a more accurate portrayal of the novel of Richard Adams. This series is going to be shown in two lengthy installments.
