Rabbits

On our land and house near Hamby, each day we enjoy watching two large jack rabbits coming near our house to eat grass and grain and drink water. They are a constant joy for our lives.

Rabbits or Bunnies are small animals in the family Leporidae of the order Lagomorpha. They appear in several parts of the world. There are eight different genera in the family classified as rabbits, including the European rabbit, cottontail, and Amami.

The male is called a "buck," and the female is called a "doe." A young rabbit is called a "kitten" or "kit." Rabbits live in meadows, woods, forests, grasslands, and wetlands. They live in groups, and the European rabbit lives in underground burrows or rabbit holes. A group of burrows is called a warren.

Rabbits are very playful. They run and frolic. They enjoy life.

In World War II, as a child, our family raised about 100 rabbits to eat the meat and make money from the pelts. Rabbits reproduce quickly and are very strong.

Rabbits are another gift of our God. God is amazing. His work is phenomenal. He created all his creatures to accomplish his purposes. I hope YOU honor a God like this.

Share YOUR experiences with others. Let me hear from YOU.
