Location: Spreading from the seeding point on Catland North, South, East and West.
Viable Habitat: Prefers shrubby grassland, but can range between arid desert edge and dense forest edge. It is however absent in full forests or proper desert, and is limited to a temperate to sub-tropical climate.
Distribution of domestic rabbits over the first few hundred years from the date of seeding, before significant climate change occurred and they began speciating.

Dietary Needs: Rabbits have a heavy cellulose diet and eat a lot of grass and smaller leafy plants like herbs. Due to a lack of variety the rabbit's diets have expanded onto young saplings and shrub leaves. They also eat seasonal fruits and seeds. They will often consume faeces that have only gone through one pass of digestion.
Life Cycle: Rabbits are placental mammals. Males are competitive over females to mate with. Once pregnant, females burrow away from the main warren to give birth in an insulated burrow. Young rabbits are born blind, helpless and don't leave the burrow for the first few weeks. Rabbits attain sexual maturity in months, sometimes allowing for two generations per year even in temperate areas, due to the planet's slightly longer year than Earth.
Other: Rabbits are social animals that live in family burrow systems known as warrens.
