Rabbits have long ears, big round eyes, and a cute fluffy tail shaped like a cotton ball. They have strong back legs that help them hop really fast. Rabbits can be white, brown, gray, black, or even spotted! Their soft fur keeps them warm and cozy.
Wild rabbits live underground in tunnels called burrows that they dig with their paws. Pet rabbits live in cages or hutches on farms and at home. Rabbits love to munch on hay, leafy greens, and vegetables like carrots. They wiggle their noses all the time to smell for danger!
- A rabbit’s teeth never stop growing, so they need to chew on things to keep them short!
- Rabbits can turn their ears in different directions to listen for sounds all around them.
- When a rabbit is really happy, it jumps and twists in the air, and this is called a binky!
- Baby rabbits are born with their eyes closed and no fur at all.
