Do you think grampa rabbits tell their grandkids scary big bad wolf stories just for the fun of it ?

Telling kids scary stories; that's one of the things grampas like to do.

    I don't know. Even though there are lots of rabbits around here, I doubt that many would be grandfathers since my cat eats so many of them.

    Although my big ol' tomcat has plenty of different cat foods to choose from, he still eats a few rabbits (mostly little babies)  now and then.  He will eat the whole critter. I watched one day as he crunched up the skull and contents of a baby rabbit.  Gross.

    Scary stories usually have or had a teaching metaphor within them.

    My grandfathers never told me any scary stories. That is not what they do.  Only the sociopaths do that.

    I liked my grandfather's stories from when he fought in WWI -shooting the enemy people and sometimes getting spattered by body parts.
    Had an uncle served in the Korean War -he did not want to talk about some of the awful stuff he witnessed there.
