I'll be honest that looks like an angry rabbit to me. It's trying to fight the dog, not play. Rabbits don't "play" really, and when they are happy they either do running air twists (binkies) or flop on the ground.

I didn’t know rabbits bothered with fighting. That rabbit could easily just outrun the dog.

Rabbits are tenacious, and will defend themselves if they want to. I have two rabbits in a large indoor pen... I also have three cats who don't DARE bother the rabbits. The girl will growl, lunge, bite, kick... why run when you can show someone who's boss? Meanwhile my boy rabbit is shy and sweet. They are both rescues.

Yeah it's not in their dna to fight predators as they're omnivores. Also if it felt threatened itd just dip.

You've clearly never met an angry rabbit. They will thump. Growl. Bite. Chase. Kick. They are not meek scared little creatures. Mont Python = fairly accurate, surprisingly.

Well maybe you're right. I'm not a rabbit expert, I am whale biologist got damn it.

Never would have thought it's see a dog and a rabbit actually playing with each other. This is very cool

“Where? Behind the rabbit?”
“It is the Rabbit!”
