A rabbit placed her nest in my front yard so I put a trail camera over it to watch it. Crows discovered the nest and tried to take one of the babies and the mother tried to defend her babies from them

The crow will absolutely remember where the nest is along with the squirrel. The squirrel is looking for where the baby ran out of. Also if you notice it’s more than one crow attacking the nest. The mother rabbit going to the nest during the day is extremely unusual because of this reason. The mother rabbit will typically only go to the nest once or twice a day and only when it’s dark out, this is to prevent predators from figuring out where the nest is. That is what got the nest discovered.
@BasedRanger Жыл бұрын
@@shannonspage9360 Perhaps I missed it, but I didn't see any indication from this video that the mother was actually on the nest prior to the attack. The mother will typically remain within sight or earshot of her nest. It seems to me that the babies were just at that age where they're starting to roam bit by bit, no longer staying concealed under the cover of the nest throughout their day, and it's because of this that initial crow was able to spot their movement.

Secondly, the fact that the die fed her babies when it became apparent that an attack was ensuing. She was not only making her presence known but also given them food to flee. Amazing really... love rabbits and nature.

Everyone is saying that this is very interesting to watch, but I'm actually heartbroken seeing that it's just so hard for rabbits to live in this world of prey and predator. Also, there were no rabbits taken completely. The first one taken was able to escape, but I don't know which one it was that returned to nest. The crows definitely almost had a grip on the kits, but I'm glad that rabbits in general are so agile and swift so they can escape their predator. I hope that the mother rabbit hides them somewhere safer. It made me sad seeing how anxious she was to protect her kits, and it also made me sad seeing how the kits had to defend themselves from those crows :(

beautiful and also educating movie. the first "rabbit" that I could see at your movie, at time 01:58, is not a rabbit, but that was a squirrel (the difference with a rabbit is the long tail of the squirrel). I think, but I'm not 100 % sure as I am not a specialist in the behaviour of little wild annimals, but I think this squirrel was also trying to steal one of the baby-rabbits with the intention to use it as feed for the squirrels' own baby-squirrels ....... thank you for sharing this real-life-experience. Life, and in special, the survive of wild annimals can be cruel, but they only kill for their own baby-annimals, opposite the way how human is killing annimals for our livelihood, is sadly al lot more gruesome and wasteful. I hope the baby-bunnies in your movie are has quickly running-back to their real nest and several of them could healthly survived. I can not believe, this place, in the middle of the grass lawn, was their original nest ....... I suppose mother-rabbit took her babies out for a walk, for one of the first discoveries of the big unknown world, and that mostly and often happen, for all kind of annimals, with nice and with less-nice experiences, where you made a very nice movie about it. I will look further on the internet for the squirrel ....... I like to find out it is usual possibly a squirrel-mother catch and steal also baby-rabbits to feed her babay-squirrels .......

Rabbits are dumb and rather pathetic. They make their nests right out in the open where anything and everything can stumble across it, including humans and lawnmowers. A lot of the time most of the litter doesn’t survive to breed themselves, and there’s not a lot the mother can, or will, do to keep predators away. Rabbits’ only survival mechanism is that they’re prolific breeders. There’s a reason the saying “fuck like rabbits” exists. Tl;dr: Almost certainly no, but the mother- and however many babies did/do survive- will make lots more.
