An HO scale Rabbit is between an HO scale mouse, and an HO scale Dog.
To be serious though, if the rabbit is 1/4" in height, that means that the rabbit (.25 x 87.1) is 21" in height in 1:1 scale. Just my opinion, but that seems too big.
Wait till I post about my new addition to the railroad, an N scale ant colony.
I don't think I can top Herb for comedy, but I gave it a shot.
--James Anybody else modelling Z scale fleas?. I can't be the ONLY one!.
Z scale for someone was to big, so instead they went with T scale fleas.
I actually did the math, that's about 0.00013 or 13/10,000 of an inch. wonder what kind of Optivisor that guy was using?

Ok, boys, back to topic...
NOCH does a nice set of farm animals, item 15711. I used them on an older layout and think, they have the right size.

You can magnify the pic by moving the mouse over it. Maybe you find a source in the US.

I think that the animals look great. In HO scale, subtle differences aren't noticed by most, but if you know that the animals are out of proportion, and it bothers you, then it's best to find something else then. However, if the pig is about waist high for a human, then I think they all, save for the larger rabbit, meet "close enough" standards.

Holy crap! If that's a paper rabbit, I'll pull a lion outta my hat. (Nice job.)

Thanks Dallas, yes it started life as a small piece of poster board that I used a mechanical pencil to draw the shape on. then cut it out and using the tip of a round toothpick I started adding the 3 d shape one small dot at a time of white glue. till the rabbit was 3 d. if u look u can see the strip I drew the rabbit shapes on behind the hutch. Very long process, but I like how it looks in the hutch.
