How far will a wild rabbit move her babies from their old nest?

A wild rabbit typically moves her babies, or kits, only a short distance from their original nest, usually within a range of 100 to 300 feet. This relocation often occurs to protect them from predators or to find a safer environment. The mother will usually return to her nest to nurse the kits several times a day, ensuring they remain close for feeding while still providing some safety through distance.
