The book Rabbits: The Animal Answer Guide, contains this information and much more. The authors answer questions about rabbits, hares and pikas. More than ninety questions and answers give the reader more insight into this fascinating group of animals. Another example of the information provided is the fact that baby rabbits are nursed only once a day, making it completely normal for a mother rabbit to ignore her litter most of the time.
Rabbits and other members of the family are viewed from diverse perspectives, not only as treasured pets but also as vegetable garden pests. And despite the fact that rabbits multiply like rabbits, a number of species in the order are endangered. The lagomorph order is also larger than one might think: there are more than 90 species of rabbit, hare and pika, and new species are still being discovered.
