how dangerous it is when wild rabbits are running near the runway?

how dangerous it is when wild rabbits are running near the runway?

I always just figured that the worst case scenario is the rabbit
getting crushed by the plane's wheels.... but then I saw a picture
of a cargo container getting sucked into a jet engine...can't remember
the airline, JL or DL? If jet engines are powerful enough to do that,
can't they also suck wild rabbits in?

The airport in question is IAD.... (Washignton Dulles) These
are not the cute furry rabbits you see at pet stores... they look
wild and are light brown in color....



just wondering....
