Meet Rebecca Rabbit! 
Hello! I’m Rebecca Rabbit – energetic, friendly, and always ready to hop into new games and help friends along the way. I love exploring the Trans Pennine Trail, bouncing through meadows, and making every adventure extra fun with my friends. Whether I’m racing along the path or searching for hidden treasures, I’m always up for a challenge and a giggle.
Quick Q&A with Rebecca Rabbit
Who are you?
I’m Rebecca, a rabbit who loves to play and explore!
Where’s your home?
I live in cosy burrows near the Trail, but you might spot me in grassy fields, wildflower meadows, or hopping through the woods.
What do you look like?
I have soft brown fur, big ears for listening, and strong back legs for super-fast hopping. My twitchy nose helps me sniff out tasty snacks and new adventures!
What do you eat?
I love munching on fresh grass, crunchy carrots, and sweet clover. Sometimes I find a juicy dandelion or a wild berry for a treat!
What’s interesting about rabbits?
Rabbits are brilliant jumpers and can leap really far. We’re also great at making friends and love playing together in groups.
Rebecca Rabbit’s Key Facts
Super jumper: I can leap high and far – perfect for racing and exploring new places.
Great listener: My big ears help me hear all the sounds of the Trail, from buzzing bees to singing birds.
Helpful friend: I love helping others, whether it’s finding a lost toy or cheering up a friend.
