        Are all wild rabbits’ fur color agouti/brown colored?

        I know Snowshoe bunnies are white, but turn brown in the summer.

        Just wondering

          Most are, yes. It’s natural camouflage. In fact, if you see a bunny with cute markings, like white with grey spots, it’s a feral domestic and should be rescued.

              I totally agree with RabbitPam, except I wanted to add that very young cottontails can have a white blaze on the forehead. Often it’s only there when they’re very young and still in the nest, but I’ve seen little ones old enough to be out and about on their own that still have the white stripe. I’ve heard some keep it into adulthood, but I haven’t seen enough close enough to tell. I only mention it because sometimes someone finds a nest and thinks it’s domestic because the babies have white marks on their foreheads.
