Yeah, they are prey creatures so to them it gives them the feeling that a hawk is carrying them away. Most rabbits get freaked out by it. Bun is okay in my arms but the second someone else tries she looks so terrified.
Thanks for the explanation, I can see how now being held might make them feel powerless and scared. You're so lucky to have at least one bun who likes it. Do your buns like headpats too?
They love them! And for some reason they love their face grabbed.
Aww that was too cute to imagine. Buns are the best!😄
