How did rabbit's feet become known as ';good luck'; charms?

Rabbits have always been associated with good luck or karma and the foot is because rabbits use their feet to lift them high and make themselves look happy or lucky so the rabbits foot became good luckHow did rabbit's feet become known as ';good luck'; charms?
i dunno but its not very lucky for the rabbit! lolHow did rabbit's feet become known as ';good luck'; charms?
Rabbits and hares were considered very lucky animals as they were associated with spring and the return of flowers and other plants. Spring was also a time of fertility and so rabbits were considered good luck to be seen running through the fields. The manner in which rabbits run gave birth to the superstition about rabbit's feet. Apparently their unusual stride amkes the back feet touch the ground ahead of their front feet and so the back feet were considered especially lucky.
