Miri’s rare ‘sea bunny’ chosen to star on tourism red packets


SARAWAK Tourism Board (STB) is ushering in the Year of the Rabbit by featuring the rare “sea bunny” Jorunna parva on its 2023 ang pow packet design.

Bearing an uncanny resemblance to a rabbit due to the little flaps on its head and fluffy-looking coat, the 10mm-long soft-bodied marine slug can be found at Miri-Sibuti Coral Reefs National Park in Miri, Sarawak.
