Long ears and so cute! Rabbit!

Rabbit is a super cute animal with long ears, a fluffy tail, and a fun way of hopping around. Rabbit has lived with people for a long time. Children and adults love Rabbit all over the world! You might think Rabbit only eats carrots, but Rabbit actually loves to eat grass and leaves.

Where does Rabbit live?

Rabbit lives in many different places all around the world. At first, many wild Rabbits lived in fields, forests, and grasslands by digging holes. Now, many Rabbits live inside homes as pets with people. Wild Rabbits dig deep holes in the ground to stay safe from bigger animals.

The secret of long ears

The most famous thing about Rabbit is those long ears. These ears are not just cute. They do important jobs!

1. Hearing sounds: Rabbit's ears can hear even tiny sounds. Rabbit knows right away if a big animal comes near. Rabbit can move its ears all around to hear sounds from every direction.
2. Controlling body heat: Rabbit lets heat out through the many tiny blood vessels in its ears. When it is hot, Rabbit spreads its ears. When it is cold, Rabbit keeps them close. This keeps Rabbit feeling just right.

Body size and colors

There are many kinds of Rabbits. Body size, fur color, and ear length are very different depending on the kind.

• Body size: Some Rabbits are tiny enough to fit in your hand. Others can grow as big as a small dog!
• Fur color: Pure white Rabbits are famous, but there are many colors and patterns like brown, gray, black, and spots.

The secret of teeth

Rabbit's teeth keep growing for its whole life! So, Rabbit chews on hard grass and wood twigs to keep its teeth at a good length. If Rabbit has nothing to chew on, its teeth grow too long, and Rabbit cannot eat food.

Food and habits

Rabbit eats only plants. You might think of carrots, but Rabbit's favorite foods are hay and leaves. Eating lots of hay keeps Rabbit's tummy healthy and grinds down its teeth.

Rabbit has very long and strong back legs. Because of this, Rabbit can hop away super fast to escape danger. Rabbit can jump very far in just one hop!

How long does Rabbit live?

When cared for as a pet, Rabbit lives for about 7 to 10 years. If you take good care of Rabbit, it can live even longer!
