In 1726, English woman Mary Toft from Southern England, became pregnant, being from a poor family she continued working in the fields during her pregnancy, whereupon she claimed the sighting of a rabbit caused her to give birth to Rabbits that September. 
 
The claim became of the first British newspaper sensations, and led to investigations from the physicians of George Ist.
