Can you help me identify this creature?

I would be thinking it's little life was already at risk, and any asistance or benefit it recived from anyone would be a good thing, a plus, a value to the human race and the world at large........ not a crime......or I would toss it to the dogs and not be bothered. Such laws are I think intended so that people don't keep such little ones as pets, but return them to the wild, so they can grow up and then get killed....

......how soon will they try to pass laws so the coyotes will have to get hunting permits?

Although I can’t see the picture, from what I have read through others posts it is a hare. Although similar to rabbits, hares have longer ears and legs. They are born above ground in small depressions in the ground and are not blind at birth. Rabbits use abandoned underground nests of other borrowing animals for nests and baby rabbits are born blind. Hares will also stay in their depressions when they feel threatened and will not move until the last moment. This often times makes them victims of lawn mowers in high grass fields (leaving orphaned kids if the orphans themselves are not mowed over).

You can feed it pet milk with an eyedropper...I have done it several times when my dog has disturbed a rabbits nest. They grow fine, then you let them go

I have an update on the bunnies.
I put the bunnies back in the nest and made it so no dog or kid would bother them. I looked with bionaclors(SP?) and seen 2 of the bunnies with fire ant all over them. I rushed to get the ants off them to no help the little bunnies have been killed. :waa:

So I took the last little bunny in the house and put it in a warm place that no one will bother it. I am feeding it with an eyedropper now and it will drink 2-3 drops at a time.

I also tryed the warm cloth thing and it works great.

I want to keep it a wild creature, I just hate seeing anything so tiny not get a fair shot at living.

Please tell me what is next thing I am to do with the hare.
Am I to try to get it to eat hay or as soon as its eyes open to send it straight outside.

Star I think your DH was pulling your leg. I'd guess feed it till it's eyes open and then take it and let it loose in the same area you found it. Maybe it'll survive. Who knows maybe it'll hook up with some other targets hmmmm I mean bunnies :haha:

Sounds like your doing all you can.
