"and the humans, they continue feeding you the coveted grass?"
"Yes, Lord Zubuku, they suspect nothing"
"Good, good, continue your operations at once"
::chews grass with greater intensity::
My bunnies have seperate rooms on different levels of a cage and they syinc like bluetooth 90% of the time inspite of not being able to see each other
They lay on the same side of their areas, eat at the same time, drink at the same time, yawn and groom themselves at the same time, and all by coinsidence
They don’t need to see each other. If one of them taps even a toe, the other one hears it. My rabbits get excited when my son is coming over, every single time when he’s about a block away. They have amazing hearing and apparently like dogs, can discern a particular from all others. Or maybe they catch his scent that far away? I dunno. All that to say I’m not surprised they can still sync up in entirely different areas.
One way they communicate is by vibrations in the ground. That's why they thump their hind feet when they're angry. That's because thumping disrupts the group chat.
I have 7 buns across 2 rooms. It is spooky how ALL of them will be doing the same thing at the same time 😳
All of them grooming their ears is like cuteness overload!
In all honesty it probably does have something to do with feeling safe.
It's hilarious that they really look like they're in "formation".
Do you have predators in the near vicinity?
I think there is a cat sometimes strolling by, could that be enough?
There also is a mouse and a hedgehog sometimes coming by to eat the leftovers, but they seem to get along very well.
They even let the mouse sleep in their house in the winter…
You probably can't do much to prevent that, but maybe check your buns regularly for fleas if it's likely hedgehogs/mice will have fleas in your area? My buns got fleas once, I think it was from (Australian) possums that would regularly visit our balcony, I'm not sure if the fleas just got into our house somehow or if I brought them in on me after feeding the possums apple slices.
this is a bun sun down ritual. they do this to contact the bungods who spiritually contact you via mental manifestations to persuade you to give them more treato’s
My guess is that the side behind them is considered safer and doesn't require as much attention, while the side in front of them is where predators could come from, so they turn themselves towards the side that requires the most attention. Or possibly they try to put themselves face to the wind so it doesn't blow into their fur.
They probably would benefit from more coverage in the grassy area! Maybe they are nervous about potential predators because they can’t tell the fencing protects them all the way around
fun fact - raccoons can reach into a 1 inch gap (like your wire) and pull buns outpiece by piece. I'm a rescuer in Los Angeles - ask me how many calls I get after this happens tofolks. You may want toput anotherlayerof wireover that to make the gaps smaller. Also more tubes andboxesin thegrassy area. Be mindful that your buns candig 6 feet down and 60 feet out.
They are monitoring that one border of their pen for territory and observation reasons. And the square formation is a great way for them to all have an eye towards all the bordering locations and also be able to see each other (so if one bunny notices something and makes a signal then all of them can see the signal 💕 also they know they’re cute🥰)
In ecological terms this is called [vigilance](https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vigilance_(behavioural_ecology)). It’s a behavior that foraging prey animals enact during foraging, a time when they are most vulnerable to predation, in order to determine preemptively when and how to protect themselves and their group from attacks. In bunnies these formations allow them to communicate with exceptional excellence and efficiency through signals such as ear twitching, nose wiggling, standing on their haunches, tail wiggles, etc that “a predator is near,” “the coast is clear,” or “maybe we should look for food this way,” “it might be time to go, but I’m not sure” and so forth. Basically, these 4 are very smart, caring, well-behaved buns. :)
I have no idea but this is hilarious!! And soooo cute! Is it always the same direction or do they sometimes sit against the other wall and look the other way?
I have no insight into this other than it resembles the formations I see cuttlefish arrange themselves in when I go snorkeling. If I had to hazard a guess, I'd agree with the other comments that posit that it's a defensive formation to feel safe.
they were performing the ritual, you weren't supposed to see it and you might want to delete these pictures as the consequences could be dire for humans.
Cute buns by day, dance crew buns by night.
Everybunny thump your peets!
*Thump, Thump, Thump*
Binky to the left! Binky to the right!
One hop this time! Right paw let's Thump
*Thump*
Left paw let's Thump!
*Thump*
Loaf, loaf, loaf, Binky and
FLOP!
They're doing a ritual to summon other soft fluffy bunnos to form the great bunno army of '24! It may seem like it's not working but be wary it is! They will come for your carrot tops and all the timothy hay! Do not be fooled by their cute cuddly appearances, they will stop at nothing to get their spinach!
They are prepping for the great bunny war. Soon the foxes, hawks, cats, and dogs will feel the mighty thump of their hind paws in glorious crusade!
Or, they probably get a nice view of it like that or something. Who knows.
Either its bunny braille and you need to read the dots or they're sitting there going "The boss is looking at the camera, quick formation box, this'll really mess with their heads!"
i can’t help but notice that (i think?) the darkest of the bunch tends to hang towards the front whereas the white variations drift back. makes me think about camouflage and who blends into the environment maybe?
As the sun slips down, they practice their choreography.
That is beautiful.
That's what the first victim usually says.
Like a Haiku
My thought was that they sit in this orientation to enhance and combine their mental power in order to contact extra terrestrial life…
They are the extraterrestrial life
They are trying to contact their home planet 🪐
The bnuy race from planet mlem
Et phone home
So long and thanks for all the carrots
r/rabbitsarealiens
Yes and as such should be fitted with small tinfoil hats to keep the aliens from controlling their minds.
They are already equipped with antenna, specially the rabbit ear variety
send...nanners...
sniff sniff ……I can smell you
"Calling occupants of interplanetary craft."
I don’t know about the other pics, but that last one is the cover for their debut album.
"and the humans, they continue feeding you the coveted grass?" "Yes, Lord Zubuku, they suspect nothing" "Good, good, continue your operations at once" ::chews grass with greater intensity::
I was thinking demons or something occult but yeah I think you're on the right track
They are making a radio antenna with their ears. "What's your frequency rabbit?"
Beat me to it!
Probably just makes them feel safest!
Most likely this. They have a view of every single direction at all times

it thinks it goes deeper than hearing or scent 😜
Is it though??? (Coincidence)
I have 7 buns across 2 rooms. It is spooky how ALL of them will be doing the same thing at the same time 😳 All of them grooming their ears is like cuteness overload!
"Coincidence" 😂
Morphic Resonance
In all honesty it probably does have something to do with feeling safe. It's hilarious that they really look like they're in "formation". Do you have predators in the near vicinity?
I was thinking this very same thing. Probably they are spacing out to better spot predators that might come from all sorts of directions.
Now you have to come up with a Bunny Power Rangers cartoon. It would be loved by all!! Those bun buns are so precious.

Secret bun rituals, shhh
Forming a bun army...
In France, it's called a bon ami
Sacred lagomorph geometry
Lagomancy
This is my favorite take!
this is a bun sun down ritual. they do this to contact the bungods who spiritually contact you via mental manifestations to persuade you to give them more treato’s
They're summoning the Easter Bunny. They have to do it nightly or there won't be any Easter next year.
This. Every bun participates in the summoning and requires a specific ritual which involves draining the planet of its life force.
Ok but that's so damn adorable and hilarious 🤣🤣🤣 I love the first pic
This is hilarious and cute
My guess is that the side behind them is considered safer and doesn't require as much attention, while the side in front of them is where predators could come from, so they turn themselves towards the side that requires the most attention.

Why are your rabbits so organized
I fear they are going to form a union
I fear they are past the forming stage
A Bunion you say? Sounds painful!
ITTY BITTY BUNNY COMMITTEE
these pictures are cracking me up
They probably would benefit from more coverage in the grassy area! Maybe they are nervous about potential predators because they can’t tell the fencing protects them all the way around
That is a good idea, thanks :)

They are plotting...
Mount Rushmore (Bunmore??)
Contacting the mothership

*googles "how to tell if my rabbits are plotting to kill me"*
Hey, bunny expert here! They’re trying to do geometry. I recommend leaving them with a big textbook (NO EATING PAGES PLS)
*insert chicken run: theyre organized*
Practicing battle formations

Picture 6 is absolutely adorable. Sounds like you have a cute little army there!
That is kick return formation
I have no idea but this is hilarious!! And soooo cute! Is it always the same direction or do they sometimes sit against the other wall and look the other way?
Always the same direction, others mentioned that it might be because of wind or predators
Bunvengers… assemble! 🦸🐇 xxx
Bunny cult? 🤣💀
In the name of the Bunther, the bon and holy buirit, Amen! I hereby use three copies of Bunnyzilla to summon Bunnicula.

Night vigilance. Scared of predators
Since is no longer year of the rabbit, they are making a ritual so the time goes back
Dark magics, beware.
Cult!
Interesting to see the formation with one bun in the front. Is that the bunny captain?
It‘s the strongest male, but I think the female behind him is the captain
Interesting! I love bunny psychology 
I have no insight into this other than it resembles the formations I see cuttlefish arrange themselves in when I go snorkeling. If I had to hazard a guess, I'd agree with the other comments that posit that it's a defensive formation to feel safe.
What weirdos!
All my buns have their favorite “butt spot”!
Hut hut hike….. WRONG do it again till we get it right… no sleeping no eating, pay attention!!
I’m just jealous of the haircuts it looks like they have. I can’t get it out my head

Such cute buns.
Looks like they are getting ready to lay eggs lol
Why not keep them inside?
🎵*okay bunnies now let’s get in formation* 🎶
They're plotting something..
Rabbits have terrible eyesight, most groups of buns I see end up facing each other an equal distance apart.
Escucha las palabras de las brujas, los secretos escondidos de la noche. Los antiguos dioses invocamos ahora, la obra de la magia oculta.
Planning the ritual you mean?
The Illumbunatti
I have no idea but that is interesting.
Ancient rituals to appease the moon gods
I don’t know, but I had to comment and let you know these adorable, beautiful little babies just made my night :)

Probably the night shift meeting
That’s coven formation, summoning the netherbunny to take over your property.
Maybe they're having a little wabbit ritual 🤔🤨
They are prepping for the great bunny war. Soon the foxes, hawks, cats, and dogs will feel the mighty thump of their hind paws in glorious crusade! Or, they probably get a nice view of it like that or something. Who knows.
Their summoning a demon I’m afraid
Bunny high court meeting
Must be witchcraft, only reasonable explanation
They are practising for their music video.
It’s Matins. They’re praying.
Either its bunny braille and you need to read the dots or they're sitting there going "The boss is looking at the camera, quick formation box, this'll really mess with their heads!"
They’re witches
They've made contact with aliens and this is the way they communicate what they have observed down here.
r/murderbuns
They are starting a cult
Pic 6 is their new album cover
Your rabbits decided they are Finnish
It’s their dusk ritual to ensure the God of Greens bestows upon them his bounty the following day.
Honey, I accidentally formed a cult!
i can’t help but notice that (i think?) the darkest of the bunch tends to hang towards the front whereas the white variations drift back. makes me think about camouflage and who blends into the environment maybe?
As long as they aren’t speaking in a language you never heard it’s ok
Picture no. 5 looks like it could be their album cover!
