Rabbits are prey animals. In their minds, being picked up equals becoming someone’s dinner. Most rabbits hate being picked up for that reason and will fight it. If they get backed into a corner like your bun, most will bite as a last resort. There’s nothing wrong with her, it’s a natural behavior. Forcing the issue is only going to make things worse and destroy her trust in you more and more.

It’s best if a bunny can enter and exit their cage on their terms instead of being picked up. So if I were you, I’d first make it possible for her to do it on her own. Then you can slowly work on gaining her trust again.

Also, is she spayed?

Some members here have mentioned that they have the bun hop into a box, to lift them – they somehow feel safer doing this, than being picked up. Worth a try.

By having had success with backing into a corner and showing her teeth, she’s learned this is the way to deal with a threatening human. So the glove-method is not a bad idea. But I’d try the box-thing for lifting her that Baxter n Boo suggests first, because that’s a nicer and less stressful way.

They don’t bite from meanness but from stress and by habit/ established pattern of action. I can sometimes talk to my growling lunger so he calms down. Offering a treat helps a lot with him, he’s a sweet-tooth (bunnies often are).

Sounds like my bun, Olivia, only she doesn’t bite, she boxes me with her front paws. I let her come out of her condo on her own, I open the door and sort of herd her into the living room. She’s become really good at it, she knows where I want her to go. It really saves the headache of trying to pick her up out of her cage.
