I thought it was just a brown rat, but the algorithm recommends mice idk
There were two rabbits in this area. This one was ahead of me on the trail and just plopped down and stretched out. It didn't move until I was about 3 ft. away from it. Sweet bunnies - I love them!

There were two cottontail rabbits in this location. One was grooming itself and didn't seem bothered by me until I got within about 3 yards. Then it hopped off.
