Breeding is a year round activity in NZ. A female rabbit can produce 25-40 young per year and young become sexually mature at 3-4 months. Rabbits eat grasses, clover, buds and seeds of many annuals.
The best way to control and reduce swelling is to ice and elevate your ankle. Applying ice will cause blood vessels to constrict so there is not as much fluid leaking out of the injured structures, which causes swelling. Ice can be applied for 20 minutes at a time while you are elevating the ankle.
Put ice on your ankle to reduce pain and swelling. Do this for 20 to 30 minutes, every three to four hours, for two to three days or until the pain has gone. After that, ice your ankle once a day until you have no other symptoms. Never put ice directly against the skin, wrap it in a cloth. Compress your ankle.
