sydnyuh captured the absolutely adorable sight of two cottontail rabbits playing what looked like an enjoyable game of Leapfrog in the yard.
This game is actually a cottontail mating ritual known as cavorting, in which the male and the female get a chance to judge their potential partner’s fitness.
Cavorting is a courtship ritual. Males run fast towards females to show interest. Females jump in the air as males pass underneath. Females will jump higher and males will spray urine if interested.
