Rabbit Starvation

Surprising fact for the day: It is possible to starve to death while eating a steady diet of rabbit. 

The condition is also called protein poisoning. It can happen with any diet consisting only lean meat without any fats or carbohydrates. Rabbit meat is very lean. The condition occurs in the far north when people are forced to survive on rabbit; hence the name.
