Hello, I'm new to this group and will admit that I generally know nothing about rabbits so please go easy on me! My 5 year old son found a rabbit hole in our backyard this evening and we know it is active, as my husband came face-to-face with the rabbit as he stuck his head out of the hole. My husband immediately said that he wants to get a humane trap to move the rabbit to a park before winter (we live in Canada) because he doesn't want the rabbit living in our backyard. My kids and I are voting for the rabbit to stay but my husband's concern is that someone will twist an ankle on the hole or if we step around the hole, it could cause the rabbit's house to collapse. Does anyone know if this could happen? The unfortunate part is that the hole has been made in a very awkward part of the yard, not off to the edge, and my son likes to play soccer in the yard. I am all for some inconvenience on our part if we can leave the rabbit alone and not uproot his home unnecessarily. Could we get some kind of partially roofed enclosure to go over the hole to a) mark the hole for us and b) keep snow from covering the hole in the winter (would the rabbit be able to dig his way out of a huge snow pile on top of his hole?) Any other suggestions? Not sure what to do but just feel it is wrong to re-locate the rabbit now that he has an established burrow, especially with the cold weather coming soon.
