ускршњи зека

An Easter symbol that has its origins in Alsace and southwestern Germany in the 1600s, consisting of a rabbit that brings baskets filled with coloured eggs, chocolate and toys to the homes of children on the night before Easter. The first edible Easter Bunnies were made of sugar and pastry during the early 1800s in Germany.

Rabbits are associated with the fertility of spring because of their ability to produce many young.
