The anatomy of their feet makes hopping so natural for them. Moreover, rabbits have such strong legs that they can leap forward almost 10 feet in a single bound.
The highest recorded rabbit jump stands at 39.2 inches or just a little over 3 feet. However, some fur parents say they’ve seen rabbits jump as high as 48 inches (4 feet).
If they can jump as high as 4 feet, then they can also safely fall from that same height, right? Not exactly. When bunnies jump, they’re prepared for the impact when they land. Falling is another matter.
