Rabbits and Hares

It is best to leave it alone. The mother rabbit will smell you on the nest and might abandon the babies. If you need to touch a baby first get the mothers sent on your hands, than do only what is needed. She only feeds the babies once every 1 to 2 days. The day they are born she might not feed them but it is normal. They will grow and be fine.

You probably should not move the nest until the babies are about 2 weeks old. She will not abandon them as long as the move is in the same general area and not to a different room. Before you move them or check them in any way wash your hands with unscented soap. You will need to check for dead kits immediately after she gives birth and then once every couple of days. Does are very secretive about feeding their babies and usually feed after dusk and before dawn. You may never see gher feed but can tell they are being fed by their full fat little tummies.

Domestic rabbits typically live 8-12 years, but some can live up to 15 years with proper care and a healthy diet. Factors like genetics, exercise, and living conditions can also impact their lifespan.

A rabbit with a really red nose could be a sign of irritation, infection, or an underlying health issue. It's important to have the rabbit examined by a veterinarian to determine the cause and provide appropriate treatment.

No, rabbits do not typically eat book pages. Rabbits are herbivores that mainly consume vegetation such as hay, leafy greens, and vegetables. It is important to ensure rabbits have a proper diet to maintain their health and wellbeing.

halks are wierd birds but they will eat dead things,chickens,mice,rodents,small fish,etc

A pair of rabbits is commonly referred to as a "brace" in hunting terminology.

The best diet for a bunny rabbit consists of primarily hay, fresh vegetables, and a small amount of pellets. Hay should make up the majority of their diet to maintain good digestive health. Fresh water should also be available at all times.

A rabbit will first try to hide if it can, if it cannot hide it will try to run. If unable to outrun its predator it may try to fight, but usually at that point its over for the rabbit.

it is a diminutive but i don't know what the diminutive is for hare.

No, Bunny Campione and Stewart Granger are not related. Bunny Campione was an English author and actress, while Stewart Granger was a British actor known for his roles in classic films such as "King Solomon's Mines" and "Scaramouche."

No, but she will have them very close together.

I am a zoologist of 15yrs. The first yr was spent on the study of rodents. e.g. their behaviour growth and breeding pattens. We found the following statement on the 3rd doe which was quite small and obviously would not of been able to cope with a large litter all at once.

If the doe feels that there is not enough food for her or her brood or the litter will be too large for her to look after and protect all at once. She will melt half the litter into her insides and suspend their growth while the rest of the litter will grow normally and be delivered. When the doe feels that there is more food and the first half of her litter is doing well, she will allow the rest of the litter to continue to grow and give birth naturally. However this is not the case for every doe's.

Well most rabbits live near a water source so that they can get a drink when they are thirsty and they will eat the bark off an tree and in the summer they will eat the roots of grass and other plants they also make a burrow to keep cool in the summer and hide from predators in the winter they hide in the burrow from predators and also to keep warm

Petco on Chenal Blvd. in Little Rock, AR. has a rabbit that appears Siamese in coloring with a rather long tail. The tail appears to be about four inches long...not fluffy....but rather like a docked dogs tail.

A rabbit is a herbivore, meaning it primarily consumes plant-based foods such as grass, hay, and vegetables. It does not eat meat, so it is not a carnivore or omnivore.

Yes, a male rabbit, or a buck, does have a tail. It may be small and fluffy, usually hidden under their fur. It helps them with balance and communication.

Baby jackrabbits typically nurse from their mother for the first few weeks of life. Once they start to forage on their own, they will eat a diet consisting mainly of grasses, plants, and some vegetables. It's important to provide them with a diet that is similar to what they would find in the wild to ensure their overall health and well-being.

well im doing reseach on the european rabbit so during the spring the mate and make babys then the dad rabbit leaves thier babys and mama and never come back.

Nature is like a system in equilibrium. If a change in any component nature, quality or quantity is imposed on it, it will try to suppress that change and try to nullify it. So if the number of rabbits increase that change will be nullified by many factors other than predators. Diseases, shortage of food etc. can happen. Also, the increase in the number of rabbits will provide a good habitat for the snakes and thereby help in more breeding. But this will happen only up to a particular limit after which there will be no more change.

Rabbits are mammals. All mammals have a body covering of skin, fur or hair. In the rabbit's case, the body covering is skin and fur.

The predators of a rabbit would be: foxes, wolves, eagles, owls, humans, bears, just about any meat-eater bigger than a rabbit who lives near rabbits.

The prey of a rabbit would have to be; the deadly plant. Grass, leaves, carrots, lettuce, etc...

A baby rabbit is called kitten or a kit or a kindle

A Kindle or to be more precise TO KINDLE is the act of giving birth to baby rabbits. It is NOT a baby rabbit.

make a sling to catch a rabbit or use a shotgun

Female rabbits can become pregnant as early as 4 months. This is not a good idea at all though.

If you are thinking of breeding your rabbit you should wait at least until she is a year old, and fully grown.

Female rabbits (does) can be bred when they are fully mature, usually 6 to 8 months. That is 18 in human years. Breeding a doe at 4 months could lead to fetal giantism and/ or death during kindling. Every rabbit should have it's own cage by age 8 to 10 weeks.

It depends on the rabbit. Some are quite comfortable sitting in your lap or very close to you. Other prefer to keep their distance. With time and patience you can teach your bunny that being held isn't a bad thing but you have to take it slow so you don't stress him/her out. I've had my rabbit for 5 years and she still will not sit in my lap but she will often sit next to me or under my chair/bed.

Also, most rabbits do not like being picked up and held while you're standing. When you do have to pick up your bunny make sure you always support it's hind legs and hold it tight against you so it can't jump out and hurt him/herself.
