      Nah they’re not smart. One left a litter in the grass next to some loud equipment. I dunno if it scared mom away or not but one morning during power up I found 3 frozen dead buns. Was not a good day.

        Oh, that’s horrible.

        I was mowing the lawn when I lived with my parents one day and I chopped a baby bunny’s ear off even after doing a walk around before I mowed. Luckily he was gone in about an hour, but yeah, bunnies aren’t smart.

    Many years ago, my grandmother asked me to plant a potted plant for her. I took the spade to the designated spot and stuck the tip down atop the ground cover there and something underneath screeched.

    Turned out to be a clutch of rabbits much like the one in the picture. All of them were fine. Just startled. I wouldn’t have known rabbits ever made any sound whatsoever if I hadn’t happened to disturb them.

    I have a Leonberger and raised garden beds so they’re at the perfect height for her to checkout what happening in the bed. She always seems to find these bunnies before I do. When they are big enough she’ll take them out of the bed and try her best to snuggle with them. Nothing gruesome, she’s trying her best to have a friend.

    Worst part I’m allergic to rabbits.
