Oct 21, 2014 at 18:30 comment added Brilliand @Jim I was referring to the jumping bunny - it doesn't go where the jumped bunny was, so the jump mechanism doesn't keep both of the bunnies on the same two squares.
Oct 21, 2014 at 18:28 comment added Jim @Brilliand, the description of the movement rules does put the jumped bunny into the position from which the jumping bunny left. That was the error in your solution. Jumping preserves the invariant that there is one bunny on each color. "Additionally, George must move south one space, because when a bunny jumps over another bunny, the bunny it jumps over (George) must move to the original position of the bunny that is jumping (Henry)"
Oct 21, 2014 at 18:20 comment added Brilliand The bunny hop also moves one bunny out of its square without putting the bunny where it was - so curve tracing isn't directly applicable.
Oct 21, 2014 at 18:20 comment added Jim puzzling.stackexchange.com/users/2383/warspyking am I correct that the placement of a bunny by being jumped by the other bunny does not count as visiting a square?
