This round of fisticuffs seems to be a combination of the rabbits establishing dominance over a section of grass (Or maybe it’s a mating ritual. What do I know? I’m not a rabbit.) and my presence. What do you get when you can’t choose between fight or flight? The rabbit on the right would lunge forward, and the rabbit on the left would jump straight up. This went on for several minutes. This particular contact looks like a connecting punch. The light was low enough that I had to keep my shutter speed slow, but that helps to emphasize the rabbits’ motion.
