***About Eastern Cottontail Rabbit:

*** The Eastern Cottontail Rabbit, known scientifically as Sylvilagus floridanus, is a common species found extensively across North America. Adaptable to a wide range of habitats, this rabbit favors areas where it can easily hide from predators, often utilizing brush piles, thickets, and other dense vegetation. Its diet consists primarily of grasses, fruits, and vegetables, shifting to twigs and bark during the winter months. The Eastern Cottontail is known for its distinctive mating behavior, which includes an interesting ritual called "boxing," where females stand on their hind legs and "box" with their male suitors to test their suitability.
