Rabbits and Hares

Nothing, they are vegetarians.

No, rabbits don't menstruate or bleed when they're in heat. There's no healthy reason for a rabbit to bleed! If a rabbit is bleeding from its genitals, it could have an infection, or an injury, or perhaps a tumour, or maybe something else -- the point is: something is very wrong! If your rabbit is bleeding from the genitals, it needs attention from a vet with experience and knowledge in rabbits as soon as possible.

Rabbit urine can sometimes look red for healthy reasons, and it doesn't mean there's any blood. The vet can tell you whether your rabbit's urine is bloody or not. Another way to tell is to put an old white towel where the rabbit pees: after it pees on the towel, look at it closely. If the red colour is all over where the wetness is, that's not blood, it's just pee; but if the redness occurs as blotches in the wetness, and some of the wetness isn't read at all, that could indicate blood and a serious problem!

No

Netherland Dwarf, and of course varies upon the individual.

the snowshoe hare's white fur helps it blend into its surroundings. it is nearly invisible to any predators

is illegal in most states to keep pet wild rabbits, and most vets will not treat them either because they are wild. Your best chance is a rehab center.

If it doesn't die from shock, you can just keep it in a low stress, quiet, darker environment to help his immune system kick out infection. Rabbit skin is thin and tears easily, so if it is a large circle, it may not be stitchablees make a splint and give it food.

Or:Call the humane society. They will get the rabbit treatment and get it released back into the wild.

of course! its a virus so it can be transmitted to anyone.

Yes, they can, because rabbits in the wild are always on their own.

You should be sure that pet rabbits cannot escape or they may be lost outdoors. In rural and suburban areas, dogs and other predators may attack rabbits, even to the point of breaking into their cages.

its fur and ears

Yes, there are many wild hares that live in forests and snow. Like the arctic hares live in northern Canada and parts of Greenland. Also the European Hare lives in Europe, some parts of Central Asia, A small part in Mid-Northern North America, Southern South America, and South-Eastern Oceania.

The rabbit can see around it really well, rabbits are also super fast, they are safe from the predator.

The rabbit was most likely annoyed and didn't like what you were doing. Its a warning that you better stop. Doe rabbits make a crying grumpy sound when they are bred and don't want you to mess with them.

Dwarf rabbits by sheer cause of breeding are very small timid animals they are always being hurt or dropped by young children and they get tired of it so they start biting to try to protect themselves. Then again it has been my experience that dwarfs are mean little rascals with very short tempers. If I was buying a small rabbit for a young child I would not recommend this breed . I would go for a Holland Lop, Havana or Florida White which are still small but VERY even tempered.

If it is a wild rabbit then no. You should never approach a wild animal and try to pick it up.

If you have a pet rabbit, then yes! They usually love to be held. Just make sure you're not putting any pressure on the chest/throat, and that' you're always supporting the back legs.

Sometimes, yes.

Lay more hay down or wrap it in a warm towel until it is dry. Next time it rains put the rabbit in a shed so that it does not become exposed to the rain.

Caribou are omnivores and will eat mostly lichen, moss, leaves from trees, and grass, but evidence has shown that they will also eat different kinds of fish and bird eggs.

Courting may occur by one or both rabbits. If a doe is in heat and ready to breed she will allow the buck to mount her. Mating then occurs. When the buck has finished, he will fall/roll off and often makes a short squealing or grunting noise.

My rabbit starting digging tunnels and putting hay down them when she was pregnant. But then we gave her a nesting box but we already put hay in it for her. I would say she is pragenant good luck!

The phrase "pygmy rabbit" could either mean a small domestic rabbit (usually called "dwarf," not "pygmy"), or a species of wild North American rabbit (the Brachylagus idahoensis). Although they're different animals, they share similar characteristics, such as a small body and small ears.

they don't. They preferer the lettuces & bean plants.

Rabbits don't sweat. Rabbits use their ears as a heating and cooling system so to speak. So in the long run, sweating doesn't help a rabbit's body.

Rabbits are good for a variety of reasons. Some are kept as pampered house pets; they are fairly easy to care for and not very aggressive, so may be good starter pets for younger children. They also need relatively little room - you don't have to walk a bunny! - and adapt readily to smaller living spaces, making them good companion animals for adults and seniors living in apartments. Rabbits are also raised commercially both for their fur and for meat, taking relatively little care, space, and expense compared to other such animals.
