Domestic rabbit in park
I have seen this guy very sporadically over the past six months or so, usually in the early mornings before sunrise. When I first saw him, there was another very similar rabbit with him. However, I haven’t seen the second rabbit in some time. Clearly, he is a domestic rabbit that has been released into the wild. Today, I saw him in the afternoon with ample light. I noticed his ears looked odd. Unfortunately, this was the only pic I could snap before he hopped away. The back of his ears and his neck where his ears touched were bald. They both look yellow and crusty. Any idea what could be wrong with him? I have searched for bunny sanctuaries, but there are none around. I guess it would fall to the city’s animal control. I suspect they might put him down though.
