`` I -- I did n't know you could look so terribly fierce , '' stammered Peter . `` Those antlers look really dangerous when you point them that way . Why -- why -- what is that hanging to them ? It looks like bits of old fur . Have you been tearing somebody 's coat , Lightfoot ? '' Peter 's eyes were wide with wonder and suspicion . CHAPTER II : Lightfoot 's New Antlers Peter Rabbit was puzzled . He stared at Lightfoot the Deer a wee bit suspiciously . `` Have you been tearing somebody 's coat ? '' he asked again . He did n't like to think it of Lightfoot , whom he always had believed quite as gentle , harmless , and timid as himself . But what else could he think ? Lightfoot slowly shook his head . `` No , '' said he , `` I have n't torn anybody 's coat . '' `` Then what are those rags hanging on your antlers ? '' demanded Peter . Lightfoot chuckled . `` They are what is left of the coverings of my new antlers , '' he explained . `` What 's that ? What do you mean by new antlers ? ''
Peter was sitting up very straight , with his eyes fixed on XXXXX 's antlers as though he never had seen them before .
