Whats the deal with the rabbit that keeps popping up? Is it the physics simulation's Lena?

It's the Stanford Bunny.

It was preceded by the Utah Teapot. There's also the Cornell Box, for global illumination testing.

So, yeah, like Lena.

Teapotahedron, please. It's the sixth platonic solid.

I also vaguely remember one of the popular 3d software packages having a bald eagle as one of the primitives.

I've seen the bunny and the happy buddha the most often.
