Those Scandinavians sure are on odd bunch. First they rape and pillage half of Europe, then they come up with ABBA, then they give Obama the Nobel Prize, and for their latest trick they come up with something worthy of the Swedish chef from the Muppets:

The Swedes, those latter-day descendants of bloodthirsty Vikings, have found a new use for rabbits: heating fuel. According to Der Spiegel, stray rabbits in Stockholm are being shot, frozen and then shipped to a heating plant to be incinerated... Converting the rabbits to fuel is the company Konvex, a subsidiary of the Danish company Daka Biodiesel, which makes automotive and heating fuels from vegetable and animal oils and fats... Bunnies, despite a felicity for breeding, are not quite abundant enough to be a reliable fuel so Stockholm also ships dead cats, cows, deer and horses to the plant for processing, Tuvunger told Der Spiegel.
There's got to be something witty I should say now, but I'm damned if I can come up with anything better than the straight quote.

Oh heck, any excuse to watch the Swedish Chef again. I couldn't find him with a rabbit, but I found something almost as good!
