  It’s suggested that a rabbit’s white tail may help them escape predators. Although this was a small experiment I thought it was a neat theory. Any other fun facts to share (can be non rabbit related too)? They make for great conversation topics. I like to tell people pet rabbits can be litter trained. It surprises a lot of people lol.

  We have discussed the evolution of the white tail on here before. It does serve as a focal point and when it disappears the predator becomes confused. I think it’s neat. The study you posted is interesting. I wonder about using humans as “predators” though. Hehe, they were apparently freaking out over getting some money out of it though.
