Wild mice can potentially carry diseases that could be transmitted to rabbits if they come into contact with each other. Some diseases that wild mice may carry include leptospirosis, salmonellosis, and various parasites like fleas, ticks, and mites, which can indirectly affect rabbits.
Leptospirosis, for example, can be transmitted through the urine of infected animals, including mice. Salmonellosis is another bacterial infection that can be spread through feces, and both wild mice and rabbits are susceptible to it. Additionally, parasites carried by mice could infest the environment shared by rabbits, leading to health issues for the rabbits.
To minimize the risk of disease transmission from wild mice to rabbits, it's essential to maintain good hygiene practices in the rabbits' environment. This includes keeping their living area clean and free of mouse droppings, securing food and water sources to prevent contamination, and regularly monitoring the rabbits for any signs of illness. If wild mice are a concern, taking steps to control their presence, such as using traps or sealing off entry points into the rabbits' habitat, can also help reduce the risk of disease transmission.

Hares belong to the genus Lepus. They are then grouped to different subgenus. Here is a list of Hares and their scientific names:
Genus Lepus
The scientific name for a species consists of two parts: the genus name (capitalized) and the species name (lowercase).

Together, the scientific name provides a unique identifier for each species.
A bunny is classified as a mammal in the order Lagomorpha. They are herbivores and have characteristics such as long ears, strong hind legs, and a short tail.
Rabbits are in the family Leporidae, which includes hares and pikas. These animals share similar characteristics such as long ears, powerful hind legs for running, and herbivorous diets.
Cousins to rabbits and hares are animals in the same family (Leporidae), such as pikas. Pikas are small mammals that resemble rabbits but are more closely related to hares.
