I just found one less than 2 hours ago. Just 1. Mother dead. Siblings dead. It’s April 19th sooo close to Easter. I’m so glad I have this baby.

Thank you for this video. Most other sites simply tell you to take them to a wildlife rehab place. The obvious problem is that not everybody is in driving distance of a wildlife rehab facility. This is very helpful.

Thanks for this video! I watched a black snake regurgitate a wild cottontail bunny in a rabbits den on July 9th. No other bunnies were left and I was able to estimate the bunny at about 7-10 days old. Today is August 9th and we have rehabbed this bunny to perfect health with plans to release him this weekend! Your video made this possible! Thanks!

Thanks for this vid. My Newfoundland found a baby with his eyes closed. He (the pup) would not leave until I walked out to see what he found. I walked my entire yard looking for a nest but could not find anything so we found your vid and have been caring for the little rabbit. Fortunately I work from home so it has gone well. The little guy gets his 4 meals a day plus water, alfalfa, lettuce, spinach, and cale. His eyes are open and he seems very strong. The Newf keeps an eye on me to make sure I'm not hurting his new friend.

Thank you guys this was very helpful. We just discovered a wild rabbit, young, on our back porch. Not more than 4 days ago. Appreciate you for making this readily available.

Just want to say: it may look like the baby bunnies have been abandoned, but most of the time they’re not, the mother only comes to feed her babies once a day, and the feeding time is very short.

Thank you sm for this! We found 4 baby bunnies all separated with no momma. We decided to take them in because it was cold and about to rain. One of them went home with a friend because she had a bunny and still has his stuff.

Thank you. There were ravens picking at their next and flew off with many baby bunnies but we managed to save 2 kits. This is helpful

Great video. I just got one and other sites say, if their eyes are still closed as this one is they will probably die, but of course I'm going to give it a shot just the same. Thanks to you I stand a better chance than I would otherwise have.

Our creek flooded yesterday and swooshed five babies out of their burrow. Four had already drowned, but one was still alive! We brought him home and named him Noah😁 Thanks for the info, very helpful.

I found a baby bunnie in the snow almost frozen and not breathing, I brought him in and now all he does is cuddle by my side

I’m about to graduate high school and I’ve been trying to figure out what I want to do with my life. I've rescued and rehabilitated animals before. I just found a bunny abandoned on the side of the road. Looking at this video and finding this cute little creature I've found the career I want to do. I want to rescue and rehabilitate animals

I used to have a baby cottontail which my mom found while taking a walk since we didn't know how to take care of it it only lasted for 1 and a half months but we had the best relationship in he whole family. It never peed on me in fact when I set it on my stomach it crawled up to my neck and slept on the side which was the most adorable thing I've seen ever thank u for letting me know what to do next time my mom ( well probably my mom) finds a rabbit :3
