It has bothered Mom for years that bunnies don't seem to learn. There is plentiful clover in the front lawn that they seem to love and the front lawn is not fenced for dogs so we can't play with them. Certainly there are hazards for wild animals everywhere but the front yard offers more hiding places than the back where bunnies seem to see it as some kind of American Ninja Bunny course. You get clover if you win and potential death or bodily harm if you don't make the safe zone with your amazing leap. Some have paid the ultimate price for being too slow, not making the right obstacle choice, etc. This brings us back to why Mom gets so frustrated that they won't stay either in the front yard or in the yards that don't have pets.
So, she happily took this picture to show one with at least a moment of sense. It decided to go for the easy clover. No ninja practice today.
Same here. My backyard is big though and lots of places under the fence where the bunnies can get through. Only one ever got caught and that was when the fence first went in. Really I think Ceilidh and Tucker scared it to death.
