Instead, you see the incredible products, the sense of community built around learning exhibitions, and the
faces of excited children.
To visualize this process you can think of a
group of excited children — like molecules at higher temperature, they move and wiggle a lot.
As prey animals, rabbits can be easily startled and stressed by the loud noises and fast, uncoordinated movements that are
typical of excited children.
Understand that fast body movements (like the flailing
hands of an excited child), riding bikes / scooters / skateboards / etc., screaming and acting up around dogs may trigger that natural chase instinct.
As a manager at a reptile specialty store, I am often reminded of my younger days, seeing myself in the
faces of the excited children, and my mother in that of the accompanying parental figure.
