The perfect present for Easter is a Rabbit “of course” because they are soft and lovable. Rabbits can be good for anything at any time. A rabbit’s habitat is grassy land, woods, mountains and crops. You almost can find rabbits anywhere.

 

Rabbits can live in burrows as homes and they can make their own. Rabbits food is hay, pellets, carrots, grass, vegetables and tree roots or plant roots. Rabbits love grass and vegetables like carrots. Rabbits can eat a lot but they need a diet so that’s why you only feed them pellets and carrots.

 

Rabbits can have up to 2 through 8 babies. Rabbits usually breed during April and September. A buck mates with several does and that is why we have so many rabbits. A rabbit’s predator is eagles, foxes, owls, ravens, coyotes etc.

 

Rabbits try to hide from them in burrow and under ground tunnels. We humans are predators’ also because we kill them. A rabbit’s weight is all different because of what kind of rabbit you have. A regular rabbit’s weight is about 4.5 pounds. Also a rabbit’s size is about up to 15 inches from the head to the tail.
