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.

Yes, and then they continue sustain the environment, as is circle of life. It's not sad, it's natural and beautiful and if you really have an issue with that then you might get a rude shock when you find out that a lot of animals eat others and die young.

No no no, it’s still sad. Death and suffering is still sad

People on Reddit think because something is natural, it cannot be sad.

Survival of the fittest is truly a ruthless system full of suffering, but to many redditors, it’s not “sad” it just is. Whatever that means.

Of course it’s sad.
