Text Descriptive
Rabbits are small, furry, mammals with long
ears, short fluffy tails, and strong, large hind legs. They have 2 pairs of
sharp incisors (front teeth), one pair on top and one pair on the bottom. They
also have 2 peg teeth behind the top incisors. Their teeth are specifically
adapted for gnawing and grow continuously throughout their lives.
Using their powerful
hind legs, rabbits move by hopping. They have 4 toes on their hind feet that
are long and webbed to keep them from spreading apart as they jump. Their front
paws have 5 toes each. Some species of rabbit can reach speeds of 35 to 45
miles per hour (55 to 70 kilometers per hour). Young rabbits seem to walk
instead of hop.Rabbits
vary in color and size, ranging in weight from 2 to 16 pounds (1 to 7
kilograms), depending on breed. Pet rabbits that have been well taken care of
and spayed or neutered early in life have a life expectancy of 8 to 12 years.
