Here we are on February 25, 2009, the babies have opened their eyes, and Mom allowed me to film her nursing them! What an amazing sight - a wild cottontail, who survived being hit by a car, gave birth, and I get to be front row and center as she raises them. What joy! Oh and BTW - there is 1 more in there - an orphan who came in just 24 hours ago. She has accepted him and he is doing JUST fine.
this is incredible. We found 6 baby cottontails abandoned. they get REALLY big D:
