Rabbits, Oryctolagus Cuniculus, are small, herbivorous mammals that can live up to 3 years in the wild. There are over 30 species of Rabbit while the American Rabbit Breeders Association recognizes 49 breeds. Rabbits can grow to large sizes at times, larger species reaching over 10lbs and 20 inches in length. The largest rabbit breed is the Checkered Giant, Giant Chinchilla, and Flemish Giant. Average rabbits are about the size of a cat while the smallest rabbits, such as pygmy rabbits, weigh less than a bound and reach under 8 inches in length. The smallest rabbit breeds include the Netherland Dwarf, Himalayan Rabbit, and the Britannia Petite. Rabbits originated in Europe and Africa, but are now found all over the world except for Madagascar, the West Indies, and southern South America. Wild rabbits live among meadows, forests, woods and even deserts, wetlands, and tundras. Burrows called Warrens are dug by these animals with multiple entrances for easy escape and multiple rooms for nesting and sleeping. These tunnel systems can reach nearly 10 feet underground. A rabbit's diet consists of grasses, clovers, and cruciferous plants such as brussel sprouts and broccoli. They prefer to forage for foods at dusk and dawn when the low lighting helps to hide them best from predators such as hawks, wild dogs, cats, ground squirrels, and owls. They are also known as opportunistic eaters and will extent their diet to roots, buds, tree bark, seeds, and fruits. These highly sociable creatures live in large groups called colonies. Rabbits have adapted long legs that enable them to run at high speeds for long periods in order to escape predators. Only 15% of all rabbit babies are able to make it to a year old due to natural predators and environment troubles. Because of this, rabbits also adapted a high rate of breeding in order to give their population the best chance of improving. Breeding occurs around four times every year and each litter produces around three to eight babies known as kits or kittens. Mother rabbits will create a depression in the grass or ground layered with softer plant materials to keep their young hidden. They will only visit their young to feed them in the morning and evening while staying away for the rest of the day. This technique helps to keep from luring predators to their nests, however, often leaves humans thinking the babies are abandoned even when they are not. These kits can care for themselves after around five weeks and at three months are able to start a family of their own.
