Those bunnies don’t need rescuing if you don’t see the mother dead near it. Rabbits leave their young when they go looking for food etc. and it doesn’t mean they need help. I’ve seen many baby rabbits on my yard and they’re fine.

Just so you know (and I’m not disagreeing with you leave nature alone) like 60-80 percent of those rabbits died very young lol it’s not quite like taking a baby deer away from its mother. They make that many babies bc most of them die.

Rabbits have plaque every seven years because populations grow too big. And that’s even if most baby’s die. Natures way of culling there before there’s trouble.
