These "Sea Bunnies" Are Absolutely Adorable

    Rabbits of the sea.

    People in Japan have fallen in love with these sea slugs, and who can blame them? These lovely creatures look like fluffy little rabbits and so have appropriately been dubbed "sea bunnies."

    The cute critters are a subspecies of sea slug called Jorunna parva, and are said to be found off the coast of Japan and other areas of the Pacific.

    The "bunnies" have taken the internet by storm, with many people sharing pictures and expressing their admiration for them.

    Though their "ears" are actually called rhinophores, and act as noses to help the slugs detect different chemicals in the water around them.
