With big, soft ears and round eyes, rabbits are some of the cutest animals around. They even hop and twist in the air when happy—an adorable action called a binky . Beyond all the cuteness, though, rabbits are fascinating animals to study.
Rabbits boast some remarkable abilities. Rabbits can run at speeds of 30 kilometers per hour and jump more than half a meter vertically. Their ears allow them to detect sounds from up to 2.8 kilometers away. They also have an amazing vision range of almost 360 degrees. With all of these skills combined, they can easily evade their predators.
