I had one myself a few years ago. I raised it because his mother had died. It`s actually not legal to own a wild animal in my country. And we soon had to release him..after about one year, because our huge garden still wasn`t big enough for his needs. He needed to be free and so we released him back into the wild. (Which worked well because I was the only human he trusted). How is it in Canada? Are these rabbits considered wild animals, or are they pets to you?
