The occurrence of snow in the Seattle Tacoma area is extremely variable and usually melts before accumulating to measurable depths. There are winters on record with only a trace of snow but at the other extreme, over 21 inches has fallen in a 24 hour period.
The rabbit's sense of smell is far more developed than that of the human. Moveable folds inside the rabbit's nose assist in the detection of scent. The sense of smell in a rabbit is present at birth, allowing a newborn to find his mother's teat. Rabbits shift their noses up and down when trying to identify a scent; this is called nose blinking..
The rabbitâs long ears serve two main functions. The first is so they can catch sound from any direction. Rabbits can move their ears independently so they can hear in two directions at once. The second is that they give off heat from the body through a vast network of blood vessels to keep the bunny cool, since these animals canât sweat or pant. However not all rabbits have big ears â some domesticated breeds like the Netherland Dwarf have short ones. Answered by Kate Sherburn, Manchester Museum.
