Who saw Darius?
It is 129 centimeters long, weighs around 20 kilograms, has long ears and a lot of fur.
The police in England have announced that the longest rabbit in the world was stolen from the enclosure in its owner's garden on Sunday night.
The investigators in Stoulton hope for clues.
Owner Annette Edwards spoke of a "very sad day," as the PA news agency reported on Tuesday night.
She called on the perpetrators via Twitter to bring the animal back and offered a reward of 1,000 pounds (1155 euros) for the return.
Darius is too old to be used as a breeding rabbit.
"So please bring him back," she wrote.
In 2010, the “Guinness Book of Records” named Darius the longest rabbit in the world.
