I want to say yes. Although the websites I find consistently say that "bunny" refers to the rabbit (rabbit ≠ hare for the uninitiated, they are different species), they do have similar behaviors and looks. And this is not strictly a pet rabbit community, so the fact that hares are very hard to domesticate doesn't really impact what gets posted here.

However, I also think the input of people in the community is important. If people who browse and/or post on !bunnies@lemmy.world don't want hare content included then I'm not going to make the change and allow hare content.

Also here's a picture of two bunnies:

I found this here on tumblr originally, captioned

Rabbits between the staves. Cambrai BM 125-128, c. 1540-50

Then I decided to do a vibe check to see if this was legit. I used IMSLP (The International Music Score Library Project) to check and found the overall music here. I narrowed this down to Cambrai BM 127, the Bassus part. If you download the Bassus (Complete) file you'll find this cute illustration on page 310!

I've been playing Stardew Valley, and this happened.

Think I'll pass on the bunny eggs, thanks.

How to Photograph Rabbits (www.naturettl.com)

Figured this might be useful for people here (especially myself) wanting to take better bunny pictures.

Article has stuff about rabbit behavior in general, which photographers would probably want to know so they could know what to take pictures of and where and when to find them doing it. Article also has plenty of adorable rabbit photographs!!

There is stuff all about the setup in the article, but the quick-digest technical information that I think certain phone camera users might be able to also take cues from is:

… a chance that rabbits might come quite close. A 300mm lens might be sufficient for frame-filling shots, but generally I have found that a 500mm f/4 or 600mm f/4 lens (on a full frame camera) is required.

My strategy with exposure is to start with an ISO of 800 and use my lens aperture wide open. This blurs the background and gives me the fastest shutter speed possible. Even for fairly static portrait shots of rabbits, a shutter speed of 1/500th of a second or faster will be helpful when using a long lens supported on a tripod or beanbag.

If you want to be ready for some sudden action, the shutter speed should be 1/2000th of a second or faster.

Post bunny pics, post questions about rabbits, almost anything rabbit or hare-related goes (whether wild or domestic).

  1. "Almost" because this is a community for bunny enjoyers—no images of dead or injured rabbits, please.
  2. This is a community for the animal! Posts of humans with rabbit features (think "bunny girls", people with a cottontail and bunny ears) are not what this community is for and will be removed.
  3. Also, no AI-generated content please.
  4. Be nice, no bigotry/discrimination, etc.
  5. Stay on topic.

Not officially affiliated with any rabbit subreddits.

House Rabbit Society is overall a fantastic resource on pet rabbits: info on diets, health, vet care, adopting bunnies, and behavior.

As of now, if you follow all 4 bunny communities (the above 3 plus this one), you will see little to no post overlap/crossposting, so you can safely follow all 4 without getting your feed spammed with several copies of the same bunny.
