If you have a scout troop working on an animal badge, contact our organization for more details about our scout classes that could potentially come to your site. We have no paid teaching staff, so 100% of your fees are all given for the support of the rabbits used in our nonprofit educational programs.  Thank you for partnering with us! THANK YOU TO PEACEBUNNY ISLAND RABBITRY FOR SUPPLYING RABBITS FOR OUR EVENTS!
