It is easilytamed and has therefore become a great pet. There is hardly any boy who hasnot, at some time or other, kept rabbits in a cracker-box hutch. In its wildstate the rabbit is a bright, clever little creature. They live in great colo-nies, where the earth is honey-combed with hundreds of burrows, called war-rens, and in the early morning or just at sunset it is a great sight to watchthem running about. They hop in and out of their holes, while some sit up.listening intently. Then, without an instants warning, the whole party willdash off and pull up again beforethey have gone any distance. Theyfight among themselves and chaseeach other madly through the twist-ings and turnings of the burrows.Rabbits have very sharp ears andfor a short distance can run swiftly,and upon these two talents they aremainly dependent for their safety.They have countless enemies, formen, dogs, cats, foxes, stoats, wea-sels, hedgehogsNote About Images Please note that these images are extracted from scanned page images that may have been digitally enhanced for readability - coloration and appearance of these illustrations may not perfectly resemble the original work.
