Unlikely. There are species like Tardigrades/water bears that can be evolve to survive radiation. But that’s about it. I was thinking about vacuums in terms of space as context.

This thread is amazing! I've got a few additions:
What's it like to live with one lung?
Surprisingly okay, actually. The other lung eventually expands enough to partially compensate for the one that was lost.
Can you perform a self-tracheotomy with an empty plastic pen?
Short answer: you can, but you don't want to.
What socks do you wear in a desert?
Wool. Far less blisters.
Prostitutes in the Wild West.
They practically founded it, really. It was women who pushed the development of proper living conditions and entertainment industry around which the first cities were built. Never underestimate a prostitute.
Did they put poison on swords?
Not likely. Not at all practical.
For how long can a person survive in a collapsed mine?
That was more of a case study, it's very hard to generalize. 69 days, I believe, is the record.
A lot of stuff about first aid and wound treatment, but that's more for my personal awareness, and only later came up in an RP.
Bike crashes, as a video-reference.
Naval slang. There's a whole dictionary.
All about pet spiders.
Religions that involve two souls per person (Chinese dualism is the most prominent example, but I've only done a surface research).
Being tased: a video-gallery.
Legal classification of explosives. Learned why C-4 is called C-4. Not very exciting.
Military jargon. Country slang. Accents in text form. How to realistically write stuttering or lisp. All sorts of linguistic nuances.
Oddly enough, almost never had to Google anything too cruel for an RP. I guess the knowledge necessary just came from my other morbid hobbies (which, for the record, are not murder).
I'll add more if I think of something.

I appreciate your thought process, but it was more so to try and defend a character design choice I made. No, a character with a rabbit mask in the middle of a group with carnivorous animal masks does in fact stick out like a sore thumb.

Mother rabbits may eat their young though. They don't do it often, but they may do it due to a bunch of factors, like if a predator is nearby and the survival mechanism tells her to do that, or it could be from a change in the environment, or lack of resources (like food). I found it interesting that rabbits (and other small mammals) kill their young due to external stresses, especially within the presence of predators. This could be because the mother will feel obligated to stay with her young if the predator comes by and self-preservation takes over. They know they can't scare off the predator, so they will kill their young to destroy the attachment they have over staying and then leave. Plus, predators may be more brutal and the mother will kill their young in a more "humane" way.
Plus, this site explains that there have been cases of rabbits eating small carcasses, including their own kind and that of their predators. It's to boost their protein intake when nutrients are scarce, and they'll even run other small predators off to keep the carcass to themselves.
Meat-eating rabbits: these fluffy creatures are not exactly "herbivores"
So that's unexpected!
