Can newborn rabbits live in the winter?

Wild rabbits generally know when it's safe to have their babies. If wild rabbits are having babies in the winter, that probably means they're surviving; if they aren't having babies in the winter, that probably means they wouldn't survive if they did.

Pet rabbits need to be kept safe and warm. They especially need to be kept dry, with good shelter from rain and snow. If the temperature drops below 50 degrees Fahrenheit (or 10 Celsius), they need a shelter that keeps them warm. See the question below about temperature for details.

In colder weather, rabbits use more energy, and because breeding takes a lot of energy too, winter isn't a good time to breed your rabbits. If you have baby rabbits in the winter, bring them inside with the nursing mom. See the related link below for more info.
