Lagomorphs, which, as you understand, include rabbits, can be called prey animals, and all because they are more susceptible than other species to the effects of a wide variety of stresses, the cause of which is often man himself.
If you decide to get such a pet, remember that some manipulations are mortally dangerous for them.
It would seem, what's wrong with lifting the animal by the ears?
In reality, few rabbits would like this kind of treatment, which is why the animal may try to escape and end up injuring the person with its hind legs.
But that's not the worst of it: in an attempt to free itself, the pet may suffer a spinal fracture, and it will no longer be possible to save it.
Another forbidden gesture is trying to grab the rabbit by the scruff.
Such actions for a rabbit are akin to an attack by a predator. What can happen in this case, you already know from the point above.
How to treat a gentle pet?
It's simple - gently grab it under its front paws with one hand and under its back paws with the other. This way the rabbit will feel comfortable and safe.
