In the realm of fluffy tails and twitchy noses, where carrots are a treasured treat and every hop brings a new discovery, that's where I dwell. My name is Robin, a bunny like no other - my lop ears hanging charmingly by my sides. I've been told that this makes me irresistibly cute, a trait I've learned to leverage in my bunny escapades.

If you've ever wondered what it's like to see the world through a rabbit's eyes, buckle up. This tale is a hop into the intricate details of the rabbit universe, as seen by me, Robin the rabbit.

1) We have proper "radars"

You may find it interesting to know that my senses play an essential role in shaping my curious world. My ears, apart from contributing to my charm (did I mention I have lop ears?), have a far more crucial purpose. They're my personal radar system, rotating a full 180 degrees to pinpoint the exact location of a sound. So, if I ever seem like I'm ignoring you, don't fret. I'm merely directing my audio antennae elsewhere.

2) We see everything!

While we're on the topic of senses, let's discuss my eyes. My vision covers nearly 360 degrees, a handy trait passed down from my wild ancestors. This broad vision field keeps me alert, ready to spot the tiniest movement. I am, after all, a prey species at heart, constantly vigilant for signs of danger. No need for fancy gadgets when you've got eyes like mine!

3) Our teeths grow constantly.

Now, the part about overgrown teeth... It's a common issue among us rabbits, but it's mostly preventable with the right diet. That's why we need a constant supply of hay or fresh grass to nibble on. Ninety percent of our daily diet should be this stuff, keeping our digestive and dental health in top shape. And no, freshly cut grass is toxic to us, just in case you're wondering.

4) We do this when we are happy

Oh, and if you ever see us bunnies making a sudden leap into the air, twisting our bodies and kicking out our feet, that's a 'binky.' It's our way of expressing pure joy - and yes, it's as fun as it looks.

5) Carrots or not carrots?

Also, contrary to popular belief, carrots aren't the best food for us. While we do love a nibble of these sweet roots, they are high in sugar and should only be given as an occasional treat. Instead, we prefer leafy greens like spinach, watercress, fresh herbs, and dandelion leaves.

6) We do weird things like...

Yes, we sometimes eat our own poo (it's called caecotrophs and is completely natural, I assure you!), but hey, nobody's perfect!

7) We love guinea pigs... from afar...

Like humans, we bunnies have our preferences when it comes to companions. Despite popular belief, rabbits and guinea pigs don't make the best pals. We communicate differently and need different diets. Also, despite my charming personality and lop ears, I wouldn't want to cause any accidental harm to a guinea pig friend.

8) We have something in common with cats!

And did you know we have a special term for our babies? They're called 'kittens,' while the females are 'does' and the males 'bucks.' Fascinating, right? Although I'm not sure what 'kittens' has to do with bunnies, I'll admit it's a cute term.

9) Secret codes and comunication!

You might not believe it, but us bunnies have a secret code - well, not so secret once you know what to look for. Our facial muscles clench, and our body positions change subtly when we feel worried. If you're observant enough, you'll notice these signs and understand our moods better.

10) We are quite close to our anchestors

My ancestors might have been wild rabbits, but I share much of their view of the world. Even though I've been domesticated, my instincts remind me that I'm just a hop away from my roots. Therefore, if I appear skittish or resistant to being picked up, remember, it's not personal. It's just my instinctual response to anything resembling the claws of a predator.

11) We need a friend!

I am a social creature by nature. The human phrase, "A single bunny is a lonely bunny," perfectly encapsulates our world. Bunnies thrive in the company of our kind, and I'm no exception. Having a fellow bunny around doesn't just double the fun, it fills our lives with an inherent sense of belonging and companionship. I was alone for one year and my life become 100 times betters when my girlfriend Zelda come in my life!

12) What does "crepuscular" even means?

Us rabbits are crepuscular. That means we're mostly active at dawn and dusk, with periods of activity during the night. During other times, we love a good snooze, probably dreaming about fresh greens and fun-filled bunny escapades.

Being a rabbit is an adventure filled with curiosity, exploration, and plenty of ear cleaning. So, the next time you see a bunny - especially a lop-eared one - remember, there's more than meets the eye. After all, beneath those cute droopy ears is a world full of intricate senses, social bonds, survival instincts, and a secret bunny language waiting to be deciphered.

And in case you're still pondering, yes, having lop ears does make everything extra cute. But don't let our cuteness fool you. Behind these droopy ears is a keen observer, a curious explorer, and a master of hearing.
