Here is my Rabbit Island gallery. We took hundreds of pictures of the cute rabbits. Caution! There are tons of bunnies on this page!
Before you get lost among these cute bunnies in my Rabbit Island Gallery, please let me recite some Lizzy and King Hop’s tips for the Rabbit Island (here is the link to my main Rabbit Island Story).
Lizzy and King Hop’s tips for the Rabbit Island
🐰 Rabbits have a very fragile digestion system (just ask King Hop).
Cabbages, Carrots, and other vegetables that humans eat are actually not good food for them. They can’t really digest these vegetables well (for example, cabbages). Some contain too much sugar than rabbits need (for example, carrots). These vegetables will mess up their digestion.
Their best diet is grass and hay. The next best food for them is Timothy pellets. You should buy the rabbit food from a pet store. You can also buy pellets from the port. There is no rabbit food on the island.
🐰 I learned that...
The ecosystem on the Rabbit Island isn’t sustainable because their birth blooms and there are not enough natural resources to support all the rabbits. This is like a rabbit petting zoo. The further you get away from the hotel, the more wild the rabbits are, but they will still take food from you. Do you know that rabbits are the worst beggars? King Hop: Not me, I don’t beg (King Hop looking away)… Lizzy: You are the worst one!
🐰 I know it is really exciting to see all the cute rabbits. However...
When feeding them on the Rabbit Island, please try to remember a couple things for the safety of these cute bunnies:
- Please do not feed them in the middle of the road, so that they won’t get run over.
- Please do not leave food outside of their nests, so that their predators won’t find the baby bunnies. If you do this, the food becomes bait to provide hawks and crows with a bunny snack (very sad!).
🐰 The bunnies by the mountain hiking trails are more cautious.
They don’t approach people the way like these bunnies by the hotel. The bunnies by the hotels have to compete for food, but at the same time, they get a lot more feedings than the bunnies by the mountain hiking trails. We didn’t know there were many other rabbits waiting for us away from the hotel.
If you ever visit the Rabbit Island, I would suggest you start your bunny feeding route away from the hotel first and then move toward the hotel, so that all bunnies and you will fully enjoy the interaction.
I hope you enjoy my Rabbit Island Gallery!
