A rabbit is a very cute animal. Generally, rabbits are divided into domestic and wild varieties. Do you know what the habits of wild rabbits are? Let's learn more about them.

1. Active at night.

The hare has the characteristic of being quiet during the day and active at night. During the day, the hare is inactive, closes its eyes, and takes very little food. At night, it is active and takes more food and water, accounting for more than 70% of the daily intake.

Therefore, to raise rabbits artificially, we must feed them enough grass and drink enough water at night.

Rabbits usually come out at night to forage for food and are seldom active during the day, but during the rutting season, they break all their rules, and they are passionate and restless.

2. They like to sleep.

The hare often closes its eyes during the day and is in a resting or sleeping state. Only the sense of hearing is more sensitive at this time, and it is difficult for stimuli from other sources to affect it.

According to this habit, in addition to normal feeding, drinking, and daily management, the breeder should keep the rabbit house and its surroundings quiet and try not to prevent the rabbit from sleeping during the day.

3. Reproduction.

Since hares are polygamous animals, male hares always want to mate with as many females as possible.

They spend a lot of time looking for females, but the time they live together with females is at best one or two days.

4. Solitude.

Rabbits are suitable for solitary living. When kept in groups, adult hares of both sexes often fight with each other, regardless of whether they are male or female.

5. Cleanliness.

Rabbits love a clean and dry living environment. A wet and dirty environment can easily cause the spread of infectious diseases and parasites.

In the design and daily management of rabbit hutches, it is important to ensure that the hutches are clean and dry, warm in winter and cool in summer, and well-ventilated.

Rabbits are very hygienic and often use their front paws to "wash their faces". If a hare's anus, mouth, and nose are not clean, it means that it is sick and the cause should be identified and treated as soon as possible.
