Rabbits: Have You Found An Injured
Adult Rabbit?
DO NOT TOUCH AN INJURED ADULT
RABBIT!
CONTACT YOUR CONSERVATION OFFICER IMMEDIATELY
Most injured rabbits will fight even harder because they are scared. If you have no other choice here is what you need to handle an injured animal.
- Very thick gloves
- Blanket
- A pet carrier or a container with a lid
and air holes
Throw a blanket over the rabbit to keep it calm. Wrap it up with the blanket while wearing gloves. Put it in the container
and close it tightly. Take it immediately to a veterinarian. Do not try and care for this animal yourself, it needs immediate attention from a licensed veterinarian and
wildlife rehabilitator.
