habitat: rabbit are ground dwellers that live in environments ranging from desert to tropical forest and wetland. Their natural geographic range encompasses the middle latitude of the Western hemisphere.In the eastern hemisphere rabbits are found in Europe, portions of Central and southern Africa, the Indian subcontinent, Sumatra, and Japan.
predators : foxs , humans, and bears
prey:Rabbit are herbivores who feed by grazing on grass, and leafy weeds.In addition , their diet contains large amounts of cellulose, which is hard to digest. Rabbits solve this problem by passing two distinctive types of feces;hard dropping and soft black viscous pellets, the latter of which are immendicately eaten.
Anatomy: The long ears of rabbits are most likely an adaptation for detecting predators. In addition to their prominent ears, which can measure up to 6 cm ( more than 2 inches) long, rabbit have long, powerful hind legs and a short tail.
other information: they soon spread to both countries and multiplied so rapidly that rabbit control became a serious problem. In Australia a virus deadly only to true rabbits was developed, and in 1951 decimation of the rabbit population began through the artificial promotion of this virus infection , known as myxomatosis.
