What do you guys think about this situation???
Hi! This is crazy. My bunny once escaped and usually I can just scoop him up, but he kicked up a giant fuss.
He needs to stop attention seeking
People like him are scaring me. How can a human do this to any creature? Reminds me a little of the Logan Paul Corpse thing. Using death or any hurt animals/humans for clicks is soo horrible. I really hope these people learn someday…
Hola and this is a crazy situation and should be stoped Straight away
He really needs to stop, or at least not film it.
THERE IS SO MUCH WRONG WITH THIS! I’m actually in shock. Those bunnies are living outside in Florida?! It’s literally 90 degrees here…
I live in Florida and I think it is disgusting to house rabbits outdoors and Extremely cruel to house them outdoors in Florida, It is so hot and humid here it is painful for a human to go outside here and it is only way worst for a European Rabbit. I also see so many snakes around my house and a snake could easily get into that chicken coop and the rabbits would have no escape.
I live in Florida and my parents turn on the fan for my bunny when its feeling hot. I cant imagine those poor bunnys that are out in the heat
@@mairal9572 Hi. A fan doesn’t have that same effect that it does to a person or like a dog. That’s because rabbits don’t sweat. It’s best to turn on the ac.
@@dodo1063 that’s crazy! That might be why my rabbits love sitting in the front of the fan even though we keep the house at 64-68 F degrees. I guess they just like the breeze and are not necessarily trying to cool off.
@@dodo1063Thank you! I will certainly make sure we have our ac on especially on hot days!
For somebody that isn't a rabbit person, he was pretty quick to identify their breed from y'know 5 metres away.....
This was something that I noticed too. He was so certain of a rabbit from so far away, AND trying to guess breed from that far back?? Sus.
That's what I'm wondering to 🤔
He seems to always put out animals to fake rescues for views, he's an animal abuser as far as I see. I really hope this was real but sadly very suspect.
He is very sus but he also closed the lid and I don’t think that box has air holes

NEVER give your bunny pine shavings, random weeds to chew on, lack of hay/pellets, never pick them up like they can’t break their backs, never throw yourself on your rabbit, never keep two different genders together, never keep bunnies together when they’re not fixed they will fight to the death, and never stage a rescue!! Also never assume a rabbit is just “abandoned” when they could’ve escaped and be lost.
I might be very wrong, but I thought it was ok to keep two fixed rabbits of opposite genders.
@@isabellacampeau6172 yeah it’s ok as long as their fixed but some people are so irresponsible and selfish that they breed rabbits. Or even keep the same unfixed gender together and they’ll still fight.
You can sometimes keep two different genders together, depending on if they're bonded and are fixed.
The way they treat them is awful.... If I treated my baby bun or any rescued bunny like that I wouldn't be able to live with myself
This makes me so angry & breaks my heart! I've only had our bunnies for about 3 weeks & even I can clearly see that every part of this "rescue" video is wrong... on SO many levels. Those bunnies need to be rescued from HIM! The other thing I noticed in the video is that he said they are in Florida. It is so hot there. I am originally from Texas & no rabbit should ever be kept outdoors anywhere, let alone in the South. Both of these people look as if they are on the verge of sweating and they aren't even the ones covered in fur. What is their plan to keep the bunnies cool? Outside, in an enclosed coop, in the summer in Florida?! Are you kidding me?! When our bunnies bink around INSIDE our house, they can easily get too warm... in Montana...in June. In our home, our little guys have cool granite to lie on & we keep the temperature in our house around 65-70 degrees NO MATTER WHAT. There doesn't even appear to be any water dishes for those poor bunnies! This video genuinely makes me sick to my stomach...shame on them both! Thank you for sharing this because they do need to be stopped. As I watch this video, it looks to me like they already owned these rabbits, neglected them to the condition they are in & then staged a rescue video. 🤬 On a brighter note, I really appreciate your videos. Being new bunny owners, your videos are so helpful in learning all the things a bunny owner should educate themselves on. Thanks so much!
Thank you for spreading the word! A lot of youtubers with a large platform avoid making these videos in fear of controversy, but it is so refreshing seeing someone show what is actually right.

@@taliyahriviere5502 100%
Yea what even gave her this idea? Probably just false assumption @taliyahriviere5502
I agree…How awful!😡Staged or not, UA-cam shouldn’t allow that kind of content. Fake rescues & misinformation is dangerous to these precious, voiceless beings🥺Keep bringing these types to light Lorelei!👏🏼🐇
We don’t need more regulations, we need more sense of responsibility. If you feel a channel is not acting how you feel they should, don’t watch, don’t even discuss them and promote them in any way.
@@Rynn21 Yea people like that should be reported ALOT and get banned off of youtube and should go to Jail for false video:(
@@busybunnyhomestead You can enforce regulations. You can't enforce responsibility.
Should we sign an online petition? He needs to be investigated and cancelled for good. His Attention seeking behavior is dangerous.
@@marsneedstowels No but you can work towards creating a culture that encourages self responsibility, common sense and basic understanding rather than continuing down the path of having all freedoms regulated to death by an over teaching government that only produces an increasingly stupid and mentally unstable population.
Literally trying not to cry rn, I hate how they kept saying "those poor babies, their condition was terrible" and they didn't actually do anything to help, no water, no hay, threw sweet potatoes at them and locked them in a freaking chicken coop? I would've immediately made sure they had water and hay, cleaned their paws and check for sores or bugs, and brought them to a vet. Only the vet could know if there's something deeper that could be wrong and give them a very thorough checkup.
at the very least they could google what a rabbit needs.
@@clownshark_ exactly!
They do not know the first thing about taking care of a rabbit and just take them in as if there were the pet expert, when all they did was complain and complain about the rabbits health and state when all they did was put them in what I call prison and didn't do a single thing about the two rabbits state. I hope that they come to their senses
I know right, and houses the rabbits Outdoors?!?!? In Florida??!?!?
I am a rabbit owner and Bunny UA-camr from Florida and I can say it is extremely cruel to house rabbits outdoors here, It is already too hot for humans to go outside comfortably and it is only way worst for a European Rabbit.
Also there are so many predators here, I see snakes around my house every day, A snake could easily get into that chicken coop they are keeping the rabbits in and the rabbits would have no escape. :(
@@kookythebunny Hello fellow Dutch baby owner! I'm in Massachusetts and its already hot enough here, I can't imagine how much worse it must be in Florida! And yeah, when I saw the puny latch and just the state of the coop the bunnies have practically no protection from something like a snake! Also I could be wrong but I don't ever recall him giving them water, even in the coop! Shameful :(
He doesn't even know what to feed a bunny. And when I was younger I rescued ladybugs in my pool and I was googling what to feed them.
lol, id rescue frogs in my pool at age 7.
😂😂🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
I “rescued” toads lol
Dear Lorelei,
After watching your video I decided to go to Jacob’s channel and it turns out they made a video of finding more rabbits! They still had them in a hutch but they gave them hay. Thanks for posting this video tho. It’s wonderful to see someone who is doing the right thing and giving rabbits the proper care. You’re the best Lorelei.🐰❤️🥰
-lullaby
Aww I love your name!
It’s a temporary home until it’s rehomed
(months late but whatever) tbh you shouldn’t go on these ppl’s channels bc it gives them more views and more revenue. what i’d recommend is to report them instead
Some people just disgust me. It's a different story if it's someone just trying to help and they've never had to do research, but he CLEARLY is doing it only for attention and to be called a "hero"
Also the fact that, despite being a habitual animal rescuer, he doesn’t even own a carrier is very strange to me?? like if you’re going to fake it at least make it realistic and ethical god
Seems like he's an animal abuser rather than rescuer, makes me feel sick, people really are evil.
Exactly, I volunteered with wildlife rescue in south Florida for years. Never was called for a bunny, pretty much every other wild critter though. I always had a net, heavy gloves, towels and carriers in my car.
even a box would do in a pinch.
OMG, guys I found pickle the dinosaur. And he spitting facts.
It's not just him, it's his sister @Hannah Feder aswell. This is ridiculous! All of these animals are clearly mistreated for the views and clout. It makes me angry! What infuriates me the most is that they don't even listen when people tell them they are caring for an animal improperly. Not to mention how they act like they know everything. Thank you for calling them out, Lorelei!
Seems like they have a whole family business going on by using and mistreating animals, disgusting.
His sister ‘found’ baby mice, and then in another video was showing how they were doing and talking about releasing them but in the second video they were obviously domestic rats (one was yellow), not wild mice! I hope she didn’t actually release them.
It's horrible! There is one video on Hannah's channel where she puts "two female" bettas together (in like a 2 gallon tank of course) - One of them is VERY CLEARLY a male and the other just as well seems like a plakat Male. It's horrible - and there are no new updates of these fish most likely because they both are dead. Classic Feders. >:(
Sadly them properly caring for them probably wouldn't get them as many views cause than they couldn't make sad videos when they die or they "rescue" them from some weird situation. It's also kinda funny that some people believe he's rescuing very very very young exotic animals people pay thousands of dollars for and he just happens to find some
You also be sticking your hamster in a 12 x 12
My mom thinks rabbits should live in cage BUT I told her about ur channel and how they need to FREE ROAM INSIDE, but she won’t budge. Since she’s gonna force me to cage the bunny I’m gonna decide not to get a bunny as bad as I want one. I’d rather someone else rescue/adopt the bunnies and give them free roam. Instead of my forceful parent making bunny live in cage.
Was recommended by Soda to see your video on the bunny rescue since ur the expert, and I commend you on your professionalism with holding your anger at this blatant negligence with another life, regardless of it being an animal. Like holy crap I learned more about these fluffy cuties then searching random facts (still recommend ikin researching new pets) but still like, def new sub!
When we found our first dumped rabbit, he actually hopped up to us and let us pick him right up. He wasn't too fond of being picked up after that so I think he was scared and wanted someone to help him. The second time we went to catch stray rabbits, it was a 3 day long ordeal that took 5 people to catch 2 rabbits.
it's so frustrating seeing how mistreated pet rabbits end up due to the ignorance and misinformation out there :( you're doing great work lorelei!
fake rescue videos really bother me and there are a lot online. even worse when the majority doesn’t even know what they are and end up amplifying the abuser, commenting about how cute/heartwarming/funny the videos are when clearly there are red flags. i looked up ‘how to spot a fake animal sanctuary’ and ‘how to spot fake rescues’ to learn more and avoid scammers and animal exploitation.
There are fake animal sanctuaries ??☹️ People would literally do anything to make money … so pathetic.
@@tatiaa7206 Yea:( so sad and sick that people make fake sancturaries for money and likes ☹🙁
@@tatiaa7206 i know. that said, i don’t know how common they are or anything. hopefully not that much. the fake videos are probably much more prevalent because there’s less oversight.
vegan sanctuaries are my favorite to support and pay attention to because i think the values are just more focused on animal rights. there are some great ones out there
I don't know about Jacob himself but I do know his sister Hannah is a real rescuer. I watch her videos more and she's been doing it for 6 years.
Hello Lennon the bunny I just got my rabbits Mitzi and piper and I have been watching your channel and it has helped me so much! Thanks for this❤️
I have 8 rescue buns , currently their 5yrs-10yrs old and their treated 2000x better then his so called rescuing.. and almost all of em I took in as unweaned babies.. And I'm forced to house them outside, it's a garage I converted to a rabbit house. Due to severe allergies I can't share my lounge/ sleeping space with any furry babies.. but they have space , controlled climate, and each other while I'm not home for company.. and when I'm home and weathers safe they get supervised outside time to run, dig and graze in the fenced in front yard. What he's doing is disgusting, I don't have the luxury or funds to get my buns - well bun checks at the vet 1-2x a yr... But I have 20yrs experience with buns and knowing signs when their sick or something s coming on, I'm well versed with their care , and my only rabbit vet in a 3 hr radius is only a phone call away, and when a problem is coming or they need their vet they go!! This jerk hasn't even called a vet to check, that maybe they need a examine!! The urine scald needs treatment, and the ear mites could lead to serious issues.. and that crap he tried feeding em could give colic!!
Also note the freshly mowed Everglades area in which he was supposedly pursuing pythons. Being a former Floridian, this just strikes me as another red flag.
And how is he so confident that they’re holland lops?!
The biggest red flag for me was personally how CLEAN their white coats were except for urine stains? So two mistreated baby bunnies survived being dumped in the damn florida everglades without burrowing for shelter while drenched in the stench of their own waste?
These babies were loved pets and this Jacob is a sociopathic PoS
He might just know what they look like. I try to name every breed of dog I see. Or if it's mixed.
Took a bag of kale down to our east side shelter today and they were completely full of bunnies. So sad. At least they do not euthanize them. So I will continue my weekly visits to help care for not just buns but turtles, parakeets and Guinea pigs. ❣️🐰🌺
Thank you so much for helping the baby bunnies 💕💕 it breaks my heart to know there are bunnies caged up that nobody wants but i’m happy they are not being euthanized👍🏽
You are so kind!!! I would do this but i have no near shelters in my area, when I’m older I will try to! ❤️
Thank you so much. There are so many animals that need our help and when I get older I will definitely volunteer at a shelter.
if you are old enough you should volunteer
@@lilylovessnoopy i volunteer at my local house rabbit resure!
i am a vet nurse and i can attest you never ever hold a bunny that way. we know and have seen some rabbits kick so hard when being handled they break their own back. you never hold them like that with one hand. support is everything. this is crazy. those are tame binnies from him i bet.
But how do you cut their nails unless you hold them tummy up?
I feel sorry for my 3 Bunnies 😢. 4days ago we left them in our garden as we need to be back in city. I thank you for this video. I hope my babies are still doing good. I'll get them today after work 💔😭
This is so staged it’s not even funny. I volunteered in my first rabbit rescue mission back in April and it took several of us volunteers just to catch 1 bunny. And that was with the use of ex-pens, food to entice etc. and once caught we would immediately put them into a carrier. This guy is making it look like a cake walk 😒
Same. I did my first capture rescue recently too and it took me, my husband and 4 kind bystanders to catch 1 bunny. After a few hours of trying.
Im so glad such a big name in pettube is calling this guy out and I hope others will follow suit here. Paused at the start but I have a feeling this video is going to get any fans he still has really riled up.
I tried questioning his knowledge, the morality of his videos and the reality behind his shtick a while ago, it did not go down well. It seems he markets his channel towards people ignorant regarding animal welfare and too young to learn independently for themselves, so they trust his word as gospel. They see nothing wrong and even normalise how many healthy animals have such often devastating outcomes under his care, it's dangerous and just devastating that UA-cam doesn't care how much misinformation and mistreatment animals endure on this site 😪
There was legitimately someone resorting to lying about being a vet to try and credit him and discredit Lorelei. That's how bad his fans are. Any real vet would be disgusted this guy doesn't take any of his "rescues" to the vet at all.
@@littlekitsune1 I know right, he gives the rabbits a bad diet and houses the rabbits Outdoors?!?!? In Florida??!?!?

@@sukitty4207 Good point.
A lot of people don't call him out because he LOVES alll attention even negative attention. I also agree he knows nothing he made a video claiming you have to teach sloths to climb 🤦.

I've kept house rabbits for many many years, this man's behaviour and lack of knowledge is shocking, thanks for bringing it to attention, you talk so much sense.
He's honestly just doing it for views at this point 🤦♀️
So many UA-camrs are abusing animals for views.. it really makes me mad
@@PeacockFRaccoon frr like he ain't the only one the dumb part is they don't even take time to atleast research what the poor animals eat or what type of habitat they need to survive in
@@allie321 Sometimes I wish I could walk up to these people and tell them how wrong they are 😠
@@PeacockFRaccoon ikrr sadly it's not possible
@@allie321 At least me and other people can make videos about them
One of my rabbits was dumped or escaped. Someone posted about him in their yard and I went to try and catch him. They had caught him, but by the time I got there he had escaped again. It took me about a half hour to get him and it was not easy. Once we got home and he had some time to relax, eat, and drink, he became extremely friendly and was climbing all over me and flopping next to me.
This video seems so staged. Even though my boy was super friendly post rescue, he was still terrified during the rescue itself. I could never imagine a dumped bunny just sitting and accepting being caught.
Is it me or does the 'middle of the everglades' look mowed and taken care of?!
Great point
Laughing so hard I peed myself!
He dumped that bunny and it’s so clean! So rabbits are out late on a stroll… plus the bunny acted like he knew him. I would have never seen it in the dark. This is sooooo staged 🤣🤣🤣
Truthfully I think they been had those rabbits in that coop, cause they feet look just like that muddy ground.
Poor bunnies, I live in Florida and it reaches 100 degrees almost everyday in the summer.
Ugh...that's horrible
Those staged videos all over youtube make me so angry and sad. I wish people would stop treating poor innocent animals like that. Those poor babies only deserve a good life, not to be used to get views and money...mistreated or tortured or dying in the process. UGH.
I love you but I could barely make it through the video honestly...just the thought that there are people who can be so.....
It just makes me sad. Thank you for covering this even though it must be heartbreaking to talk about 😭
Also the way he held the bunny even after 'catching' it killed me inside 😭
Go to 7:25 in your video. This is where he first gives away that he knows there is a second rabbit out there (i.e. the whole 'rescue' is staged). He switches from talking about a single rabbit (the one he just caught) to rabbits plural. ''You can tell these rabbits were neglected. They were standing in their own pee''. So many flaws and issues, and at the end when he put them into that chicken coop without a single piece of hay I just wanted to die (and probably the rabbits did too).
Great point!
I don’t think we can call that a rescue…
I also noticed the rabbits back feet were stained with urine. Isn’t that usually from sitting in a dirty pen and litter? I have a Flemish giant and we do her box daily and she’s never had stained paws. Maybe I’m mistaken and it’s her white fur
@@amberleeannalee1999 exactly
@@amberleeannalee1999 hey, a fellow Flemish giant owner! I have a bonded pair
One time a Rabbit from the neighbour break out.
She was so trustful, she never saw me in her life- but when i sat on the floor and called her, she runned towards me.
She was so trustful and healthy, looking well fed and had very good fur - but even she, runned when i tried to get her.
After 3 hours in the middle of the night ive finally got her and she was staying in my house.
Luckily i had two buns at the time so i could gave her safety, food and water an everything she need (seperated from my buns of course in another room) She was safeley returned to the owner who was so glad to have her back.
She managed to escape because the little daughter left the garden-door open.
In the end- if a bunny gets picked up SO easely, the animal KNOWS the person, the smell and the movement.
This is not a normal behaviour to a stranger.
Im a new bunny owner and even i know you arent suppose to give bunnies potatoes. This guy is driving me nuts. Before i even pick leaves and grass for my bunnies i search a picture of the leaves or grass on my phone through google and make sure its ok for my bunnies to eat it.
what's disgusting is these videos (the jacob guy or whatever his name is) are clearly aimed at children or a younger audience. he's spreading misinformation to children. he's taking advantage of living creatures for a quick buck. very questionable morals
I dont think he knows
@@xzavionpascual4256 Yet he acts like he does.
Not to mention he literally states in the video that the rabbits have something going on with their skin and then turns around and SETS THEM UP FOR ADOPTION without even taking them to the vet. So he’s potentially giving away sick rabbits to innocent people .Lorelei everything you said was spot on. I believe he went to a pet store bought 2 rabbits and then dumped them in the forest to ✨find them✨ he’s literally taking these animals lives for granted over a UA-cam VIDEO. He needs to be CANCELLED. Excellent video Lorelei ❤️❤️
SO TRUE!!!!!
This is horrible… 😡😡😡Those animals have a life, and he is destroying them! I think it is a truly bad soul to do that to poor little animals. Thank you Loralie for making this video:)

There is also Hannah feder.
There is so much wrong with Jacob Feder's video 😡. Thank you for shining a light on what he is doing! Those poor bunnies are going to have tummy aches from that food 😭.
I also can’t believe that they put those two rabbits together. They’re not a bonded pair they could seriously injure each other. Rabbits are not automatically friends 😭😭😭
you actually inspired me to have my very first rabbit, Bibun, be free-roamed. I actually bunny proofed my room to my best effort and so far, we are both loving and enjoying each other's company!
Also the fact that he put two "dumped" rabbits together not knowing their genders! What if they breed!
Thank you Lorelei , I have learned so much about rabbit care and holding myself to the highest standard of care for my adorable bunny Lucy. She got spayed last week and is doing great ! I found her vet by looking at rabbit rescue recommendations. I can’t wait to send pics of her rabbit room, still working on it. This is awful, I hate to see this bad treatment of bunnies. I hope the attention you generate will bring about some change
Girl, it's not the outdoors thing that's the problem. The problem is he has no clue what he's doing and doesn't care to know anyway. This is basically "how NOT to house your rabbit outside." I don't know where he lives but given he sounds American, chances are he does not live in a climate where it is even humane to keep rabbits outside 24/7.
- You can and should make sure that every centimeter of an outdoor rabbit habitat is rabbit and predator-proof.
- They have to slowly adapt to outdoor life. With the right housing and security, they can learn what spots are extra safe, like an upstairs level with solid walls where they can retreat to if they feel threatened, lots of lookout spots, and friends to communicate with. They support each other when they feel stressed, and they communicate about the environment. They can basically become part of the environment from the safety of their secure habitat and they learn to trust their habitat's security and let me tell you, ours LOVE it.
- They are far more capable of dealing with cold weather than you'd think. It's the hot weather that really kills them. In most parts of the US, rabbits can't live outside for at least half the year because the weather is way too hot. When temperatures drop below freezing, then you gotta step in, but as long as they can be out of the rain, wind, and direct sunlight with plenty of good hay, they do really well.
- Their place should be large enough to give them enough space to run around and it should be 100% secure so they cannot escape, top and bottom included.
- You don't let them eat whatever, no good rabbit owner lets them roam free in places where they don't know every plant that grows there. This dude doesn't even know what grows in the pen... He should be able to identify every plant in the rabbit's vicinity by name and know whether it's edible or poisenous.
It's not the outdoors environment, it's people putting rabbits in a hutch outside and calling it a day. If you just plop a rabbit in a house somewhere, there is no way that rabbit is not gonna eat chords, plastic, or human food. You protect them against it. Why would you think you can't do the same outdoors?
I do want to say something about how he was holding the bunny on its back. I know how you said it was unnatural for a bunny to be that calm while on its back, but when you put a bunny on its back it goes into a stress response that keeps it from moving. So that would make it completely normal.
He’s so full of it. Glad you made this video to wake people up.
Ikr
It’s completely unacceptable, he doesn’t even research! Bunny care nowadays is completely different than what it was in the 90’s and 20’s
Shocking that he doesn't even take them to the vet and specially when he clearly doesn't know anything about rabbits.
Isn't it funny how the "only container they had" already had rabbit droppings and straw in it? Kind of like he brought the rabbits in it to stage the video.
I am a new bunny mom who knows nothing.
I have watched so many videos by so many people.
You have won me over with your compassion in the Jacob rescue video.
What a sad story!
So I have subscribed and have alot of content to watch.
Thank you for your educated content!
My abandoned bunny is a coffee colored floppy eared bunny. He doesn't bite..beautiful..very friendly..won't let me touch him..but comes right up to me..nudges me..smells me..starting to react to my voice.
I think I have had him for about a week..free roaming him.
Haven't settled on a name yet...I'm thinking Baily or maybe Hudson (yes they are off of liquor bottles..Bailys Irish cream..and Hudsons corn whiskey) no I dont drink..my sons bar.
I know the bunny is a boy..but have no idea how old he is.
An 8 yr old boy moving from a house to an apartment..left it in their yard..and the kid told my 8 yr old nephew that he could have him..my nephews dad didnt want to keep the rabbit..so Aunt Susan (me) now has the rabbit..and I am loving him!
I need to find a vet and have a checkup.
I love seeing you tell the truth! Thank you. Also, while I know you’ve done a video on this before, could you revisit rabbit hemorrhagic disease? I am a vet tech for an animal shelter in western WA. We’ve just had our first confirmed cases in the state in the past month. These poor bunnies were also indoor only and very well cared for. Rabbit rescues in my area are holding vaccination clinics and vaccinating hundreds of rabbits at a time and our shelter is vaccinating all of our buns as well as our wonderful fosters own pet rabbits. This disease has such a horribly high mortality rate and RHDV2 will often present even without bleeding. I’m grateful that my bunnies are vaccinated, but I still use the utmost caution when working with stray bunnies. Please encourage your audience to seek out a rabbit savvy vet, house rabbit society or a rescue to learn where to find vaccines in their area. Medgene is producing a killed virus vaccine in the US so the vaccine isn’t as difficult for places to get as it’s been in the past. It’s just so sad to see how fast rabbits pass from this disease. Also, rabbits living outside are so much more susceptible to infection. No more useless deaths and help to protect the wild rabbit population! Thanks Lorelei.
That was so painful to watch! His video thumbnails are super gross and disturbing. I looked at his page and every 3rd video or so has a violent theme with that fake blood splattered on an animal. How can anyone believe that's what an animal lover looks like?
I noticed "mowed grass marks" in the everglades. hmmm.
This is terrible, especially because he has so many followers. He is educating people about rabbits in the wrong way. To hold a rabbit like that is just absolutely terrible.
This is so crazy! my bunny is a holland lop, she is very sweet and friendly which means she is okay being out in open areas like our living room and my bedroom (she is free roamed:) but a bunny who was "dumped" out in a forest word not react like this! they would be scared and try to stay away from people and predators. They would not just sit out in the middle of a field calmly. Like Lorelei has showed in all of her past rescue videos, it is a much longer process to rescue bunnies then he is showing. let alone rescue like 4 bunnies in one night! Thank you for actually taking the time to go out and rescue bunnies Lorelei
FIRST, and I totally agree with you Lorelei
How u gone agree with her if you was first 5 minutes ago and you didn’t even watch the whole video if it’s 24 minutes long?
@@nofouls1421 I did I commented after
There are tons of fake rescue pages where they film the healthy animal and then hurts it or kills it. Then edit it to make it look like they "rescued" them.
This gives me those exact vibes. It's very staged and it makes me believe that this is a similar situation.
I have a free roam bun, Karat, and I used to be able to watch these types of videos, but now it’s literally too triggering and I cry whenever I think about rabbits being mistreated.. damn it 😭😭😭
My children were watching educational UA-cam. They love animals. Especially little critters like frogs and snakes. I was watching one of his videos and he was literally snake hunting and killing pythons in a place called python island. Opening up the clutches and killing the babies. I was horrified. He needs to be stopped
Lorelei, I know you may not see this but I have a little story I wanted to share. At this event with animals I overheard a woman with her husband (I’m guessing,) (and keep in mind, their little daughter which is a toddler,) talking about getting a bunny. The woman said the bunny was going to be for their little girl. WHICH IS A TODDLER- and can’t even take care of an animal yet. I also heard a lot about cages, so I’m guessing their going to get a bunny and cage them. I really hope they choose to free roam, and research.
Who’s to say those rabbits were bonded? He just put them together in a bin without knowing that. If they were really rescues from the outdoors, they could have killed each other. Rabbits are very territorial, especially if they aren’t spayed and neutered.
What's even more sad is veterinarians, often times, don't see rabbits. I've had a very hard time finding one to see mine and they only do neuters.
As a vet tech, I can definitely vouch for this being true. You need a small clinic or, specifically exotics clinic. The reason many practices don't see bunnies unless they are specialized is because bunnies have a very different kind of system (from dogs and cats), and many older vets were not taught much about exotic/pocket pets. Also, when it comes to more serious illnesses because they hide sickness well, most pass before owners are able to take them to a vet. I encourage you to look into exotic/pocket pet veterinarians. They are becoming more and more common!
Hello Lorelei and Lennon! I am so sorry for your struggles. I know you have been trying for years to educate people, but some people just don’t understand! It is so frustrating for me as well especially after all of your efforts. I hope Jacob watches this video and changes his ways. Thank you for making this video! Love you both!!!💛💛💛
You are very optimistic. Insensitive creeps don't change their ways
@@lazyhomebody1356 yes they can!
@@HeartzfromGigi Why should he? It's working for him
@@lazyhomebody1356 I never said He should I said He Can change his ways... So plz Can we not fight? Edit: P.S. This is my opinion don't take it to heart ty
@@HeartzfromGigi I've chatted with you before and like you. So yes, peace!
Ya I 100% agree with you. A bunny wouldn’t ever not be scared especially if it’s been abandoned. It’s just the part of a bunny unless their socialized. This man makes me mad
It’s really upsetting to see people will do this kind of stuff, only for views and content😡My friend actually found 3 abandoned rabbits about 3 days ago, and there still struggling to capture the last one. I think it’s good that you show/ lecture that not all rescue videos are real, that they might even be staged. Keep up the great work!❤️
Where I grew up we had a small issue of people dumping rabbits animal control one time trapped 15 bunnies that were dumped and there were more I almost on multiple occasions saw domestic rabbits very close to my house but due to local I sadly couldn't set up traps to help them
I can’t stand him or his sister just fake staging of animals putting them in more harms way than if they didn’t do anything at all… terrible ppl
This is so frustrating! I can't believe people like that spread misinformation especially with such easy access to educate themselves. Keep up the good work Lorelei, thank you for always helping the buns!
I never watch these kind of videos, they give me sleepless nights. I have 3 bunnies, and the oldest one looks just like the ones he "rescued". Mine sleep in the middle of the night until 5 AM. That is when I come to clean them and feed them. When I, for some stupid reason, change my schedule to 4 or 3 AM, they will panic for a few seconds. Giving them food would be waste of time. They have a large enclosure in my room, but rather not pick them up when it's feeding time. They don't like to be picked up when they are still in the process of waking up. Jacob's bunnies didn't act normal. He should have taken them to a vet that very morning. He better never touches my bunnies, or I would sue the heck out of him!
From someone who shows their pet rabbits that bunny wasn't bought from an ethical breeder it is a bad quality holland and was either bought from someone bad or a pet store. So sad 😢
In fact it's probably a mini lop and he just said holland because they are a more popular breed
There's so much wrong with this, he doesnt even know how to care for, house, feed, or even medically check the rabbits correctly, and I hope he stops
As bunny owners and against animal abuser we should unite and report him and comment to inform people. Thanl you lennon for bringing more light into this issue. God bless you :D If if weren't for you and other bunny channels I wouldnt have known how to properly care for my fluffy babies
Do NOT comment on his video regardless of if they're positive or negative they boost his videos cause the more interaction a video gets the more social media pushes it. He DOES NOT care about these animals and the majority of his supporters do not care to do their own research and wholeheartedly thinks he's actually helping these animals.
@@asherkarr5096 thats very true thank you for informing us. It was naive of me to say that.
I completely agree. He also has other animals and he’s had emus die “unexpectedly” too.
@@slaughterhater exactly and for some reason he always seems prepared and apparently there are soooo many "abandoned" animals he "saves". Just a lil sus.
Lorelei I agree that Jacob clearly knows nothing about rabbits and I do agree that rabbits NEVER belong outside
Not with rhdv2 especially !!! Even with the vaccine it is not safe for domestic rabbits to be outside ! No way I agree
I Just feel Just So Sad that there are So many cute bunnies that are abused and abandoned😢
See this is something that should happen: you should never stage a rescue, if you actually found an injured bunny you NEED to take them to the VET.
If people watched this video and this was a dog, it would be so different. But because rabbits are voiceless and in history, they were only farm animals not considered part of the family, they get to be treated so inhumanely? This makes me so frustrated. Staging this as a rescue, calling them neglected then actually neglecting them by not giving them the PROPER treatment really is crossing the line. Online bullying is wrong I agree but he can`t keep doing this, this is WRONG! He has over a million subscribers and a lot of his audience is young. He is teaching his subscribers that this neglect towards not just bunnies but all animals is okay. Jacob Feder please stop attention-seeking and actually do the research and implement it when you are responsible for these animals.
staged for sure iam sick of people making money off from animals and children most familys continue spitting out babys so they have a fresh cute new baby in the videos your videos help bunnys and thats a great thing you save many many bunnies and help people understand what bunnys need. love lennon and your channel ive learned alot to help me with my 2 bunnys
You're a hero for making this, thanks Lorelei! I really hope this can help deprogram his fan base.
He's full of fake charisma and It seems like if ppl started caring for their animals he'd have no content.
the animals and followers may be being used for narcissistic supply
Fake, phony, false, like many animal "rescue" videos people post. The facial expressions, the voice--all ham acting. If there's a humane society in Florida, they should investigate.
I avoid watching rescue missions because so many of them are staged and I just find it so demeaning and frustrating to those who actually do rescue animals from the goodness of their heart or because it's their job.
Love ur videos keep up the good work
I hate that big UA-camrs can just get away with whatever they want. I hate it.
Same
I could've believed it's pure ignorance, but sadly it isnt
He's intentionally harming them, took one look on 'recent comments'
Almost none even once called out, so he's more than likely actively removing them
My hatred of this man grows the more I get to know about him.
As someone with bunnies myself, my very social boy (who will sit in my lap while gaming and greets visitors at the door) hates going out or hates when unknown humans come into the space too and yea, I have to agree - not dumped rabbit catch would be this easy
This is so painful to watch. It make me sick that he is using these poor innocent bunnies for views, and monetary gain. He is reckless and should be stopped. Thank you Lorelei for calling him out.
thats honestly terrifying to see that someone with so little knowlegde about bunnys are "taeching" million of subscribers how to handle a rescued animal wrong ...im praying for those poor bunnys ....
You saved my bunnies from not being in a cage, now my bunnies are free roamed
I haven't finished the vid yet, but WHY would he put 2 bunnies that he doesn't know thr sex of in the same bin? I wouldn't be surprised if most rabbits that are dumped aren't fixed...you might have more of an issue with pregnancy later on...
Also my bunnies don't want me to pick them up most days . ... and they live in my room!
Edit: WHAT IF THEY ARE BONDED? Is he letting them go separate to homes? Also WHY didn't he clean their feet?
I know right, The video is clearly staged, and then he gives the rabbits a bad diet and houses the rabbits Outdoors?!?!? In Florida??!?!?
I am a rabbit owner and Bunny UA-camr from Florida and I can say it is extremely cruel to house rabbits outdoors here, It is already too hot for humans to go outside comfortably and it is only way worst for a European Rabbit.
Also there are so many predators here, I see snakes around my house every day, A snake could easily get into that chicken coop they are keeping the rabbits in and the rabbits would have no escape. :(
Notice how he had a bin with substrate in ready made for the bunnies?!
Jacob Feder has a lot of wildlife who shouldn’t be living in human houses, such as tigers and chimpanzees. He’s really no better than Joe Exotic or Doc Antle! 😾
So excited!!!!
How did you get the bunny thing in your name?
Same
@@Bunny_queen143 I think this person pays for it
@@Bunny_queen143 I joined the membership group
The way that some people treat bunnies makes me sick. Thank you for sharing important information so hopefully people can been good bunny parents!
Lots of love for you and Lennon!❤️🐇
I just hate this guy smh and how does he just happen to know the exact breed of the rabbit
That was so painfully obviously staged. I don’t see how ANYONE could believe that.
I know this is from a year ago but the first thing that horrified me was he put them in a bin with a cover. It's amazing they didn't suffocate.
