Found a Wild Rabbit Kit? Why You Shouldn't Feed It Yourself

Never attempt to feed a wild rabbit baby. Their survival depends on their mother's milk during the first weeks of life.

Improper feeding can be fatal, and interfering with wildlife often causes more harm than good.

What to Do

Observe from a distance to see if the mother returns. If the kit is injured or in danger, contact a local wildlife rehabilitator or animal control.

Let nature take its course whenever possible.
