Rabbits have been associated with bad luck for centuries on Portland; use of the name is still taboo—the creatures are often referred to as "Underground Mutton", "Long-Eared Furry Things" or just "bunnies".If a rabbit was seen in a quarry, the workers would pack up and go home for the day, until the safety of the area had been assured.
