He has no apparent external injuries but it appears that he may have been clipped or brushed by a car. His legs do not appear to be broken but he is severely dehydrated so for now I am focusing on re hydrating him. Note: rabbits are very hard to rehab so I don't recommend that you try it. I have rehabbed before and I have no other options for now, he is staying.

Rescued a Rabbit today
Well today while driving home I noticed a bunny in the middle of the road and being the animal lover that I am I pulled over to help him. Sadly, living in the middle of nowhere and people around here eat rabbits means not a lot of people rehabilitate them. By not a lot, I mean no one for about 2 hours.

I honestly didn't think he would make it past an hour, but here he is 9 hours later and still around. He was severely stiff, cold, and out of it when I picked him up. It's morbid saying I thought he would die, but sometimes you have to be realistic. He is a WILD rabbit so he will not be staying with me if he makes it.
