Previewing questions:
Can you tell if a person has good or bad intentions by the way they are dressed? If yes, how?
Yes, because nice people usually dress very good. They are well dressed and look nice so that you will compliment them. Then people who are bad usually look scary or they wear clothes that aren't very nice.

What do you think is about to happen? The rabbit just jumped into his hole. Maybe something scared him because he's hiding now. Something is going to come out of the woods.Maybe another rabbit?
What can you tell from sound effects? The music is beginning to speed up, it's not as peaceful as it was in the beginning. Something is coming, because the rabbit is startled.
Describe how the rabbit is feeling. The rabbit is feeling scared. It seems like he is the only rabbit in the middle of the woods and that the woods are usually peaceful. Something is coming into his territory and he doesn't know what to think.
Describe the setting. There is one rabbit hole in the middle of a field with pine wood forests on each side. The sky is clear and blue. There are mountains in the background.

Describe the two characters, compare and contrast their outfits, tools, and tactics.
- Describe Rabbit Hunter 1:
young boy
fashionable clothing
uses basic trap with carrot
Isn't trying to hurt rabbit
Looking for a friend in the rabbit, maybe as a pet
Describe Rabbit Hunter 2:
looks mean
older guy
lumber jack clothing
uses steel foot trap
Wants to hurt rabbit in trap
Looking to eat rabbit once caught
Based on this still shot, what do you think the motives and goals of the two characters are?
The hunters goal is to try to win over the rabbit using their desired tactics.

Which hunter do you think the rabbit will choose and why? I think that the rabbit is likely to choose the second hunter because he has the biggest carrot and based on the rabbit's facial expression he looked like he was in love with the large carrot.
What are the goals and motives of the hunters? Have they changed? I think that the goals of the hunters have changed. In the beginning they were each trying to catch a rabbit. Now they are not paying attention to the rabbit and they are fighting with each other.
What do you think is going to happen next? I think that the rabbit is going to try and eat as much of the large carrot as possible and sneak away from the hunters while they are more interested in fighting with one another.
After Viewing:
Did you expect the story to end the way it did, why or why not? No I never expected the bird to swoop down and take him away. I thought that the back and forth, back and forth, of the two hunters would confuse him enough that he would have a heart attack or run back to his hole.
How do you think this clip was created, what technique did the authors use? This video is similar to the clips that are shown before Disney movies. I think that it was an animation created by using the computer.
