    I've had multiple families of wild rabbits living in my backyard for years now. They're great to have around; very calming and great for your emotional well being. After dinner I go sit in the yard and watch them all run around munching on clover. They're comfortable with me watching them and every day I leave a fresh bowl of clean water out for them. 🙂

    Amazing Video!! People really need to understand DOMESTIC and WILD rabbits ARE NOT THE SAME. I've really had enough of this nonsense where people just release their rabbit into the garden to "free" them or keep them out in a hutch. This really needs to stop, thank you for spreading the word Lorelei❤️

    I have a wild rabbit that I named Ginger that lives in my yard. She's very tolerant of us, sometimes hanging out with us when we're having a BBQ. While she won't come up to us (except for the time I was filling the bird feeders), she's comfortable enough with me to to flop down and stretch out and relax while I talk to her. By the way, I know she's a girl as she had a baby in our yard 2 summers ago and last year, she did attempt to make a nest in our raised flower bed that she figured out how to get into by climbing the back stairs. (It sits next to the staircase.) She's been visiting for about 4, 5 years now and has a spot in our back yard where she sleeps or hides during the day. (I've seen her go in there.)
    Also about 2 weeks ago, I saw the cutest thing: while on a walk, there was this wild bunny in the corner yard, that suddenly got the zoomies and ran around in a circle in there side yard for several minutes! Sometimes that rabbit would jump up in the air before continuing the zoomie! The best part was having that rabbit run within inches of us (that neighbor didn't have a fence)!

    We found our domestic rabbit outside, seemingly hanging out with the wild rabbits. It's hard to say if the wild rabbits were accepting of him or not, and we have no way of knowing how long he was living in the wild before we found him.
    I'm surprised about how bold rabbits can be, wild or domestic. The wild rabbits have been known to hop right over to us at times, and our little domestic rabbit didn't show much fear of humans when we first captured him, and has never been particularly concerned about our cats either.

    I’d say that if you see a domestic rabbit, when you’re walking by the first thing to do is take a picture to post on Facebook or something and lost animals groups. Also for places like Australia where there are no local rescues. Normally it is best to try to catch them yourself and watch videos on itto know how.

    It would be great if you could make a video about deep knee bends since rabbits like when you come down to their level (rather than being picked up). My back was getting destroyed getting down on my rabbit's level. With the deep knee bend position, things are working out better. Sitting crisscross apple sauce on the floor destroys by back.

Il y a juste une chose, d'après le Guinness Book, le lapin Hazel à vécu plus de 16 ans mais, il y aurait aussi un lapin qui aurait vécu plus longtemps encore, ce serait Flopsy et serait décédé à l'âge de 18 ans et 10 mois 😮🐰💞😃 !

    I have a question that is not related to this video at all.
    My one year old bunny who is turning two in September choked on her pellets about a year ago. (Fortunatly she is ok now.) We did a bit of research and discovered that we should add a bit of water in to the pellets so that they are softer and easier to chew and swallow we have done this ever since the incident. I don't know if we should continue to do this forever, or if I should stop adding water to her pellets.

      Check with an exotics vet that sees rabbits. They’re the best people to consult with regarding diet issues with your rabbit. It took me almost a year to get our group of rabbits diets perfected because each one ended up getting stasis at some point. And was due to feeding them too many gassy greens. So I have to limit them now to specific greens 🥬 and only 3 times a week. They get unlimited orchard grass hay and 1-2tbsp of pellets a day and a digestive tab everyday. This is just the diet that works for my group and my vet agrees with it. Since all my rabbits are seniors from 6 years of age to 12 years of age. Just had one put to sleep the other day from respiratory failure and she made it to 11 years 8 months. Rip my Grace 😢
