Based Bunnies

Short answer: Rabbits are small mammals in the family Leporidae, together with hares. They have long ears, strong hind legs and short, fluffy tails.

Rabbits are herbivores that eat mostly grasses and other plants, and their teeth grow continuously throughout life, so they need tough, fibrous food to keep them worn down. Females have a gestation of about a month and can have several litters a year; the young are called kits or kittens. Rabbits are crepuscular, most active at dawn and dusk.
