Remember, rabbits are prey. My bunny was a rescue and lived in between my yard and my neighbors yard because neither of us could keep him inside, but she found him dead in her pool yesterday. She thinks that he was trying to run from a cat. I am heartbroken. I will have more bunnies someday, but not until I can keep them safely inside.

There was a park in Texas with lots of ex-pet rabbits. Suppose the weather and foliage helped them out.

Why do hares hop?

They hop to get places, and because their build and the power in their back feet doesn't allow them to walk like humans or other animals.

A hop covers maybe half a foot to a foot of ground, depending on how fast your rabbit is going, how strong he is, what breed he is, and where he is.
