Why does the rabbit stamp its foot?

Friends who keep rabbits may find this problem. Sometimes rabbits stamp their feet in the cage for no reason, sometimes just a few times, sometimes for a long time. Bian Xiao also keeps rabbits, so I also found such a thing, but I thought it was very interesting at that time and didn't investigate the meaning of rabbit stamping. I didn't mean to see the relevant knowledge today, so I shared it with a rabbit keeper!

1. Stamp your feet when you are afraid of danger.

In fact, not only our domestic rabbits can stamp their feet, but also rabbits in nature can stamp their feet, which is their lifelong nature. When they find danger, they will stamp their feet to warn their companions around them!

Of course, our domestic rabbits will also behave like this. For example, when cats and dogs approach, they get scared and stamp their feet. Sometimes, Tu Tu can be aggressive. Before attacking, it will stomp its hind feet hard, and its body posture can also be regarded as an offensive state. The ears of the vertical ear rabbit will move forward like horns, and the ears of the vertical ear rabbit will swing forward. Of course, Tu Tu's attack was self-defense, that is, stamping his feet. I think it also means "afraid".

Stamp one's foot when angry

Stamping my foot means I'm angry! This should be unique to pet rabbits. Who did the rabbit lose his temper for? Hunters and foxes? Tutu, who is loved by his parents, will be fearless, angry, demanding and narrow-minded like a spoiled child. A rabbit, who was treated coldly by his master, never had a chance to play outside the cage, and would not know how to get angry and lose his temper.

3. Stamp for no reason

We will encounter many such situations in our daily rabbit raising, and we don't know why. Sometimes we will find Tutu staring at a corner warily, but not looking at anything. Maybe it saw or heard something. If the host has time, go to appease Tutu.
