Bunnies 11 is a methuselah with lifespan 17465 that was found by Tomas Rokicki. It is currently the longest-lived known methuselah with 11 or fewer cells. Its name comes from the fact that after generation 146 it evolves similarly to the methuselah bunnies.
Stable pattern
The stable pattern that results from bunnies 11 has 1749 cells and is the exact same as that of bunnies, but with one extra glider that escapes before generation 146. That is, it consists of 136 blinkers (including 14 traffic lights), 109 blocks, 65 beehives (including three honey farms), 41 gliders, 18 boats, 18 loaves, seven ships, four tubs, three ponds and two toads.[1]
