What are some fun fact about pygmy rabbits?

Pygmy rabbits are the smallest rabbit species in North America, weighing only about 1 to 3 pounds and measuring around 9 to 12 inches long. They are unique because they dig extensive burrow systems, often using their strong hind legs to create deep tunnels in soft soil. These rabbits have a specialized diet primarily consisting of sagebrush, which they rely on for food and cover in their natural habitat. Additionally, pygmy rabbits have a distinctive appearance with their short ears and fluffy tails, making them quite adorable!
