rabbit season
When bunnies beware
Rabbit season is the period when hunting rabbits is legally permitted, typically set by wildlife authorities to manage populations and protect breeding cycles.
The phrase gained cultural currency through Looney Tunes cartoons, where Bugs Bunny and Daffy Duck argue over whether it's rabbit season or duck season—now shorthand for any circular, self-serving dispute.
