Left-hand bowline.

Use with caution

Variation of the bowline where the rabbit goes the other way around the tree. Needs a few more pulls to cause it to untie when cross loaded, but otherwise performs almost identically to the standard bowline, and should be treated the same way. It also needs a stopper knot.
