It has become quite the tourist attraction over the years, with people coming from miles around just to witness this gargantuan feat, some brave souls even choosing to scale the beast. The artist who created the creature says that he plans to leave the bunny right where it’s at until the year 2025, or until one of the Greek Gods comes back to earth to retrieve it.
