A ginger-coloured bunny defied all expectations by proving to the world that it’s more than just a tiny, adorable creature it can also play a mean game of Jenga.

A YouTube video published on Jan. 7 shows a rabbit named Simba a small, short-eared bundle of fur approach a group of three people who are sitting on the ground playing Jenga, a game that requires strategy, patience and good balance.

Simba saunters right up to the stacked wooden blocks with sheer confidence. A woman with red hair attempts to take a block from the tower but stops when she notices Simba’s curiosity in the game. The little bunny then sniffs the side of tower, presumably calculating his next move.

While the minuscule animal has no means of taking a block from the bottom to put on top, it does manage to pull a wooden square from the tower’s lower side with his mouth. Much to everyone’s surprise and delight, the wooden tower doesn’t topple over, and all of the humans in the room applaud the rabbit’s smooth move with a smile.

If this bunny is such a pro at games that involve physical skill, we wonder how well Simba performs playing a game of Twister.
