Fibonacci’s Rabbits

Geoffrey A. Landis

 

Count

the

rabbits

then count them

again, and again.

Fast as you count, they multiply

in Fibonacci’s geometrical progression:

rabbit rabbit rabbit rabbit rabbit rabbit rabbit rabbit rabbit rabbit ra–

Exponential rabbits would fast fill the world, until

the world is naught but rabbits –yet

as they multiply

predators

simply

eat

them.
