United Airlines hasn't explained why a giant rabbit died after being flown from London to Chicago or why it had the animal cremated within hours of his death, a lawyer for the rabbit's buyers said Monday, announcing possible legal action. "United has taken no action to rectify this," Cook said, raising larger questions about how the airline treats the animals it transports. United spokesman Charles Hobart said the company had reached "a satisfactory resolution" with the rabbit's breeder, Annette Edwards, in Worcestershire in the United Kingdom. The owners are seeking the costs of buying and transporting the rabbit — estimated at $2,300 — and future earnings. Cook said he could have grown to weigh 40 pounds, likely making him larger than Simon's father and the world's biggest rabbit.
