How did rabbits and chocolate eggs get associated with Jesus rising from the grave?

We raised rabbits when I was a kid. Trust me, you DO NOT want to eat the chocolate eggs they make 😂

Rabbits and eggs are signs of fertility. They are residual from other spring celebrations.

@SW-User Oh, that I know. Christianity back in the day operated much like Starbucks today, taking over pagan holidays with high foot traffic and hanging a cross on them knowing that people would just keep celebrating the day regardless of the change of ownership 🤷‍♂️
