These are some of my buds along with myself (not pictured of course) that those furry cute rabbits could never elude.

Seen plenty of rabbits around here. They ride $8,000 bikes while wearing totally fab skirt suits.

I live in Lakeview, and I see brown rabbits around the area from time to time... not frequently, but every once in a while.

If you live close to the cemeteries you will see them pretty often.

not necessarily. rabbits are huge. most cats can't even handle a full grown rat. ever been kicked by a rabbit? it hurts like a mutha. not to say the rabbits aren't petrified of the cats however.

I've seen a ton of rabbits here in Humboldt Park. every morning I see at least 1; one morning I saw 3. I think they cross over from the park, lord knows why. I've also seen them in Grant Park, around the area near the museums.

Ravenswood Ave. is overrun by rabbits, I see them almost daily on my way to work. I've also had them in my garden in Logan Square.

OK, on the south side they had to remove the chewing beavers out of Jackson Park. We have rabbits, possums (I saw one last week!) and raccoons. Rabbits live in the yard next door and come out to forage at dusk and in the early morning.

However, one time the rabbits did not come out for days. This was after I saw a red-tailed hawk perched on the fence next door!

Default HP Rabbits

I've seen rabbits in Humboldt Park. They're pretty tough rabbits too. They all carry guns.

Rabbits and squirrels, fox, hawk and coyote. Smelled a skunk, hope we never meet eye to eye.
Critters love this area.
