A small town in the federal state of Florida, at Lake Okeechobee: Pahokee. Since the beginning of the 20th century a particular initiation rite has been practised here for boys on the cusp of manhood.

Speed and strength, courage and coordination skills are necessary in order to catch the rabbits with one’s bare hands. Afterwards, the animals are killed and eaten.
