This bunny lives near my house. It was up against my neighbor's house avoiding the rain. We think there's a bunny warren right there with some baby bunnies. I just wanted to pick up this cute bun and cuddle it, but I knew that it would run away. (And, besides, it's usually not a good idea to cuddle wild animals.) It was sitting there for quite a few hours before vanishing, but it will be back I'm sure.
Right?? The kicker is there IS a garden, but it's two houses down from us (so next door to the people who put the alarm up). The people with the garden haven't installed anything - they have wire around the garden, but I wouldn't be surprised if the buns occasionally got in. Yet those folks seem to have accepted that.
These people just had a couple bunnies play-fighting and loafing on their massive flat green rectangle of a yard. They have small kids that play in the yard most days, but I can't think of how a bunny could cause any harm.
It makes me sad for the kids, honestly. They don't even have a tree back there. Now they don't even have animals, except occasional starlings in the grass.
I seriously worry about humanity sometimes.
