Nuralagus rex, the Rabbit King

(image source: https://www.deviantart.com/sanciusart/art/Nuralagus-rex-recon-808748972) Host Matthew Donald and guest co-host Christina Eilert discuss Nuralagus rex, a large relative of rabbits that's maybe overcompensating a bit by having rex as a species name. From the Pliocene epoch, this 3-foot lagomorph lived on a remote island in the Mediterranean where it promptly became an evolutionary dead-end and went extinct as soon as there were any changes to its ecosystem.
