FALSE!
If the 6 “limbs” include the specialized limbs on its head, then the Easter Bunny is not an insect because the 6 legs on an insect come out of its thorax.
This means…the Easter Bunny is an alien! I’m on to you!

I’m currently rereading the Ender Saga and I’m in the middle of Speaker for the Dead - such a good series

Speaker for the dead was 93% of the value. The rest it started with. It was meaningful. Idon’t mean to negate that. It really just Rubiksish puzzle dimensplaining.

Who is to say what’s part of the thorax and what not? There are other instances of insects having a thorax that looks divided. In some insects (I think it was beetles) most of the “abdomen” is actually their thorax and so forth…

Ah! But insects are defined by having 3 body segments: head, thorax, and abdomen. Regardless of the size of each segment, all 3 exist in their adult form. And! All insects have their 6 limbs coming out of their thorax. No record exists of an insect with limbs coming out of their head.
I’m onto you alien sympathizer 🤨

Yes, that’s true. What I meant is that there are insects out there where the segments aren’t as obvious. Look for example at this group of beetles where it’s hard to distinguish between thorax and abdomen. It could be that the thorax in easter bunnies start shortly in front of the “ears” and ends just behind the last pair of legs ;)
