Description: A plague of rabbits has hit the Far East, eating up everything in sight and actually threatening populations with starvation. They continue to spread throughout the globe and fear, disease and death lie in their wake. Despite all of man's technological advances, it seems nothing can be done to stop them. Step forward Dr. Palfrey, a man of genius and determination, but even he is a long way from a solution and it is not clear that even if one can be found it can be implemented in time. Meanwhile, the rabbits appear to be enjoying the destruction and bloody mess they leave behind.
