Rabbit - Animation Time!

Today's Animation Time features the Rabbit Rig.
Head - light sway side to side, with a little bounce on the jaw and flop in the ears
Chest - puffed out with flop on the belly
Hips - medium side to side, rotate to offset the chest and compensate for the movement of the belly
Legs - low small - wide steps
Feet - drag back on the passing position, land with a little toe flop
Arms - medium swing
Hands - overlap and drag from the swing of the arms and forearms extending into the fingers and toes
