Til's rarity and cuteness would have made him a star, as small furry animals are historically celebrated in Germany and, indeed, beloved worldwide. The shaken zoo director reported to Spiegel that Til would have felt no pain. But it will probably be years before the cameraman can put on a bunny slipper without crumpling into bitter sobs.
