Yes. There are hundreds of pet rabbit breeders in Texas. I raise Dutch. There are also wild rabbits in Texas: the Swamp rabbit, Desert cottontail, Eastern cottontail, and Black-tailed jackrabbit (actually a hare).
Eastern cottontail rabbits mainly eat twigs, bark, and buds from shrubs and trees during winter when fresh green plants are scarce. They may also feed on grass and other vegetation if available. It's important for them to find enough food to survive the cold months.
Eastern cottontails typically live around 2-3 years in the wild, although predators, parasites, and environmental factors can affect their lifespan. In captivity, they may live up to 8 years with proper care.

life cycle of the eastern cottontail
The eastern cottontail can be found in most of the eastern United States except for New England. It has been introduced to parts of southern New England. It is also found in parts of New Mexico and Arizona. There is a subspecies of cottontail in New England, the New England cottontail (Sylvilagus transitionalis), that is very similar to the eastern cottontail. It has a black patch between its ears. It rarely comes out into the open.Please comment my page.
