ABSTRACT
This chapter presents the story of the "Rabbits" captured in photos. It analyses photo images of the "Rabbits", which were taken during and after war, as evidence of crime and torment at Ravensbruck. The "Rabbits" experienced suffering and were left with horrendous scars and damaged health. Many of them were operated on several times, particularly the victims of bone regeneration experiments. The relationship between the "Rabbits" went beyond friendship. The common experience of pain and the feelings of injustice and violation that they shared resulted in powerful bonds based upon mutual understanding, compassion and assistance in the provision of care. The unique relationship among the "Rabbits" had a great influence in developing mental strength, courage and determination, qualities which enabled them to establish fundamental aims, such as surviving the camp and informing the outside world about the crimes committed at Ravensbruck.
