Absolutely not! If you mess with the Mommie rabbit while she is giving birth, she can bite you, and she will be agitated enough to jump around and hurt the babies. Sticking hands in the cage can cause the mom to give birth to stillborn babies, and after birth the Mommie rabbit may decide not to take care of her babies if she is upset enough. Rabbits are one animal where nothing good comes from interfering.
1 out of 125. It is rare that a rabbit dies while giving birth.
Yes, rabbits are able to give birth while people are watching, however, if you do catch your rabbit giving birth, make sure you stay quiet and do not move her in any way. It is sometimes difficult to catch a rabbit giving birth because they usually kindle(give birth) late at night or early in the morning. --Newfoundland97
well when you usually sneak up on it and spook him while giving birth espeacily whenyou pick it up from its mate...
Probably not.
no a mother giraffe is not endangered while giving birth.
When my rabbit was pregnant, we didn't even know that she was pregnant. When we found out she had given birth, which was some minutes after she gave birth, she was in the middle of constructing her nest. So my guess is, they build their nests a little while before or immediately after giving birth.
A rabbit's natural instinct is to protect the herd (warren). In the wild dead baby bunnies attract predators so the mothers will eat them. They also eat any after birth. Sometimes mothers who are having a hard time giving birth will bite and/or tear at the babies while giving birth. This is why so many of the breeds with bull dog type heads have such low live birth ratios. It is hard for the mothers to give birth.
yes
Yes, a baby rabbit is commonly called a kit. Several kits born together make a litter. While the mother rabbit -- called a doe -- is giving birth to her litter, it is known as kindling. Leveret is the word used for a hare under a year old.

You shouldn't milk a goat while it's giving birth. The newborn kid needs that milk to survive.
because she was dying in child birth
