!!Meta
* Both the voice actors for Kehaar and Cowslip (Creator/ZeroMostel and Creator/DenholmElliott respectively) died a decade apart from each other. Mostel didn't even live long enough to see the finished film released.
** Kehaar's final lines, saying goodbye to the rabbits, read like a farewell from Mostel to the audience:
-->'''Kehaar:''' "I go to big water!"
* In online rabbit-owner groups (for example, the "bunblr" community), it's very common for friends and followers to respond to the death of a rabbit with a litany of ''"My heart has joined the Thousand, for my friend stopped running today."''
** When Creator/RichardAdams died in late 2016, thousands of users on Twitter marked his passing with that very same phrase.
** As well the death of Creator/JohnHurt, a scant few months later.

!!The Netflix Series
* Hazel's death is possibly even sadder in the Netflix series, because here we get to see his final conversation with Fiver. It's ''very'' clear from how Fiver acts, and from the tone of his voice, that he ''knows'' this is the last conversation he'll ever have with Hazel but can't bring himself to actually tell Hazel that.
-->'''Hazel''': What news, Hrairoo?\\
'''Fiver''': Oh, nothing much. I just wanted to come and sit with you for a moment, if I may.
-->''(pause as they lie in the grass, side by side, and watch the pond)''
-->'''Fiver''': What a path we've walked together, eh? It... it's been such a pleasure and honour... ''(voice shaking)'' ...and a real privilege.\\
'''Hazel''': Hmm. Are you all right, Fiver?\\
'''Fiver''': ''(choked)'' Yeah, yeah, I'm fine. I just came to say good night to you. My leader... my brother... my friend. So... ''(long pause)'' Good night.\\
'''Hazel''': Good night, Hrairoo.\\
