Rabbits are animals that we all like to keep, but some details will likely be overlooked in the process of feeding them.
Rabbits have many teeth. People have been fooled by the rabbit's two rows of small incisors, thinking that it only has these teeth.
But people have ignored a detail that the rabbit's cheeks are also moving when it chews.
This means that there should be a lot of teeth on the side of its mouth.
Actually, the rabbit has a total of 28 teeth.
Especially when it is more scared and in a state of alertness, it always feels as if something is wrong with its eyes.
The rabbit is looking at things with one eye, its eyes are long on the side, but it does not mean that it can only see the side.
Because the angle of view of its single eye is 180 degrees.
Even if you make small movements behind it, it can still be aware of you.
In contrast, perhaps because humans are too powerful, they do not need to be in a constant state of alert, so they cannot be in a state of alert like rabbits.
When feeding rabbits, you will find a very interesting phenomenon. When you take grass to feed rabbits, they will often cannot find where is the grass. They need to smell around to find the grass.
Rabbits can breathe very rapidly. Why does it breathe so rapidly?
1. Natural characteristics
Rabbits are animals whose daily breathing rate is higher than that of other pets.
So we can often see the rabbits' noses flapping very often.
2. The weather is too hot
Rabbits have a high daily breathing rate. However, if the rabbit is inactive or does not want to eat food, you should consider whether the rabbit is sick or not.
This is the time when the owner should pay extra attention to the rabbit's health.
3. Being frightened
Rabbits, like people, will experience shortness of breath when frightened.
At this time, the rabbit will otherwise behave relatively normally but will appear to be evasive.
Owners can think about whether their behavior or any unexpected events at home have triggered the rabbit's uneasiness and caused it to be more frightened.
People can pet the rabbit's head, let it out and run around as much as possible, give it the snacks it usually loves, and try not to hug it.
This is because some rabbits feel a sense of being caught when they feel a hug and will be more upset.
Having a good knowledge of these rabbits will make it easier for you to feed them.
