Anna Delvey denies ditching bunnies in Brooklyn Park

Get me hare and makeup!

Anna Delvey has found herself in a scandal over some homeless bunny rabbits, Page Six ears.

The famed scammer-turned-model did a photoshoot over the weekend, featuring some bunnies on leashes.

But there was an outcry online after someone later found the very same rabbits abandonded in Brooklyn’s Prospect Park. (Delvey had posted behind-the-scenes images from the shoot on her Instagram, and a concerned local uploaded images of rabbits they’d found in the park — and somehow someone noticed they were the same rabbits).

The trouble seems to have begun when the famed scammer-turned-model and an up-and-coming young photographer, a hair stylist and a pal got together in a pretty ad hoc group to put together a shoot that had no specific purpose and — perhaps crucially — no specific boss.

Photog Jasper Soloff — who has shot stars including Dove Cameron, Tinashe, Pamela Anderson and Billie Eilish — cooked up the idea of having having Delvey walking rabbits down West Broadway in the shots.

It appears that someone involved in the shoot (apparently slightly over-eager to help) told the gang that they’d get hold of some bunnies but — rather than using the professional animals wranglers that exist for exactly this kind of thing — they found someone online who was giving away some free rabbits in Yonkers.

And then didn’t know what to do with them after the snaps had been taken.

A member of the loose group eventualy copped to turning the bunnies loose, saying that they tried to return them to the person they’d got them from, but “panicked” when they couldn’t get in touch with the owner, and left them in the park because they “believed, mistakenly, that there were existing rabbits in that area.”

Delvey told Page Six, “I do not eat meat, and I had no involvement in the acquisition, transport, or return of these animals. I would never condone these actions.”

After reviewing messages between Delvey and the team behind the shoot, it does indeed appear that Delvey — who saw the rabbits for the first time when she was picked up from her apartment for the job — wasn’t involved in procuring the animals, and had no reason to believe that they wouldn’t be properly taken care of.

It appears that she only discovered something was amiss after the online kerfuffle about the saga began.

An attorney for Soloff today us, “This was not Jasper’s photoshoot.” They added, “Jasper had no knowledge or input as to how the bunnies were obtained or what happened to them after the photo shoot.”

“Thankfully the bunnies are safe and being cared for. Jaspar is a huge animal lover, has grown up and cared for animals, such as birds, cats, dogs, parakeets, iguanas, and has a lovely dog named Tinkerbell and would never be involved in the harming of any animal,” said the lawyer.

The leporine models are now being fostered.
