It was my photo from my 2006 UK trip of a deceased rabbit, which had died (or been killed by farmers) due to a debilitating desease called myxomatosis.

Well, just examine the keywords that people used to find it: dead rabbit pics, dead bunny pictures, picture of dead rabbit, etc. etc. etc. There were 20 different variations of dead rabbit/bunny pictures that people used! On that note, I hope everyone had a Happy Easter.
