Gave Birth to 16 Rabbit Babies!
I found this looking for some medical rabbit picture I could use for the cover of my bunny med log I'm creating.
In 18th-century England, Mary Toft convinced doctors she had given birth to 16 rabbits.
A Short Narrative of an Extraordinary Delivery of Rabbets [sic] was written by King George's surgeon about her case. People stopped serving rabbit stew.
Once the hoax was discovered, the medical community suffered great embarrassment...to put it mildly.
