Where can you buy wild rabbits for sale in PA?

You can't buy wild rabbits for sale, only pet rabbits. Wild rabbits, like all wild animals, should be left alone and not domesticated, or caught and sold. It's one thing to hunt wild rabbits, and then sell their body or products (meat, fur), but you shouldn't catch and sell wild rabbits as live animals: there are enough pet rabbits to go around (in fact, in many places, there are too many -- overpopulation).

What is the difference between a wild animal or a pet animal?

A pet is domesticated and are raised to live with humans. However, a wild fox isn't accustomed to living with people and also live by their instincts. Assuming that you are raising a fox, I suppose the difference would be if it could be train or if it could be kept inside. However, if you picked it up from the wilderness, then yeah, it's a wild fox. Correct me if I'm wrong dear.

Where do lionhead rabbits live?

No they are not. Lionhead rabbits are domestic rabbits with a mane gene. The mane gene is dominant so any rabbit that is bred to another that has a mane has a 50% chance of getting a mane.
