Wild rabbits are small mammals belonging to the family Leporidae. They are known for their long ears, short fluffy tails, and strong hind legs, which help them run quickly to escape predators. Common species include the Eastern Cottontail and the European Rabbit. Wild rabbits typically live in burrows or nests and are herbivores, primarily feeding on grasses, leaves, and vegetables. These animals are social creatures and often live in groups called colonies. Wild rabbits are most active during dawn and dusk, a behavior known as crepuscular activity. They play a vital role in their ecosystems by helping to control plant growth and serving as prey for various predators, including foxes and hawks.
