This video appeared on my Facebook feed, and I think it's well worth sharing:

This is a really sweet bunny (in the end), who I think needed a gentle approach to handling. Unfortunately I think we all sometimes don't always know how to read the body language pets give off, and the poor owners felt the full brunt of their rabbit's defensiveness/aggression. It's lovely to see the change in behaviour at the end of the video, that comes from both rabbit and owner being more relaxed
The advert for the episode also gives some really great advice on rabbit bedding: https://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/p064g5n4
I really feel for the owners, who honestly felt they were doing everything right (according to the pet shop).
