Expertise:  I can answer anything regarding care of rabbits (feed, grooming, maintenance ect.) I also can help with sick bunny's I have been thru my fair share of illiness but know I AM NOT A VET I just know from presonal experences and talking with my vet.

What do you like about this subject?  What is there not to like? I love everything about my bunny's. When I am having a bad day I go in and sit with them and they make my day better. Our rabbits are pet's before they are anything else.
What do you still hope to achieve/learn in this field?  I am always wanting to learn more. You can never know enough and things with rabbit's are always changing.
Something interesting about this subject that others may not know:  Did you know that rabbit's have rooted or pegged teeth? There always growing and even tho they look like they have short little teeth they actually go all the way up under there eye socket's they also have two sets of front teeth. I can't remember exactly how much there teeth grow a day but one of my polish snapped a tooth off right at the base and it had grown all the way back in 1 week
Something controversial or provocative about this subject  The fact that some people are so arrogant that they really believe they know "everything" about rabbit's. I am sorry NO ONE knows all there is to know. Everyone always has there own opinion on what they thing is right or wrong.
