all gerbils thump their feet to talk to one another and to warn others that is is their area. Yeah, all gerbils do, they do it when excited, threatened, annoyed or to warn other gerbils off or that there is a predator. My gerbils thump their feet when I go in to give them a toilet roll (they love them).

When rabbits thump their back foot does that mean there's danger?
Rabbits thump their back feet when they think there is danger. Key word is THINK. They are scared easily by other animals, or loud noises. Thumping technically is their way of warning fellow rabbits of something "dangerous" or a possible danger. Rabbits also thump when they're frustrated (or possibly sexually excited, or a little angry). It should be obvious by the rabbit's body language which kind of thump it means. If the rabbit looks alert, eyes wide, body taught and tense, then it thinks there may be danger around; if it's hopping around and scratching at things or playing or humping, then it's frustrated.
