Pet rabbits (not wild rabbits) have long nails because they aren't exposed to difficult conditions to live in and don't run (hop) or exercise much. Whilst wild rabbits must fend for themselves in the wild and do an awful lot of running (hopping) which keeps their nails trimmed. Which is why it is important to cut your rabbits nails when they get too long. To simply cut their nails, you must hold your rabbit so it doesn't struggle and very carefully with small clippers or pliers, cut a little bit away each time, but don't cut too far because you will hurt your rabbit and bleeding may occurr.
