A rabbit expert recently revealed that she chose to adopt a cute bunny as a companion despite being born without ears. Leo, the bunny, stood out among his siblings for lacking his usual floppy ears.

A seasoned rabbit enthusiast recently revealed that she chose to adopt a charming bunny as a companion when it was born without ears.
Kylie Clarke, the owner who is 31 years old, had concerns about her pet’s survival and ability to hear due to his lack of ears. However, she has found that this unique feature has not impacted him in any way.
Little Leo, the bunny, stood out from her siblings with her unique characteristic of not having floppy ears like the others. Despite planning to rehome the rest of the litter, Kylie, from Belfast, Northern Ireland, made the decision to keep Leo as her own pet. “I’ve never seen anything like it before,” Kylie expressed. “She’s absolutely adorable. We named her Leo because she resembles a miniature lion.” Kylie noticed something was amiss when Leo was born as she didn’t quite look like the others. As Leo grew, it became apparent that she had been born without any ears at all.
Kylie, hailing from Belfast in Northern Ireland, exclaimed, “I’ve never witnessed anything quite like it!” The photo features adorable little Leo.
The mother of four has been raising bunnies professionally for over a year now. Leo is seen cuddling with a stuffed teddy bear in the photo.
Leo is scheduled for a vet check this week, even though she appears to be in good health. It is possible that her missing ears are the result of a genetic abnormality. The woman caring for Leo is a mother of four who has been breeding rabbits professionally for over a year. Leo, a mixed breed rabbit, was born six weeks ago.
“At first, I was quite worried, but after doing some research, I found out that it’s extremely rare,” she said. “My four children, two girls and two boys, are thrilled. They see it as a miracle. Leo actually gets more attention than the other rabbits.”
While there isn’t a clear explanation for Leo’s missing ears, she is otherwise happy and healthy. Despite this, she will still undergo a vet check this week to ensure that everything is in order. It’s possible that her unique appearance is due to a genetic defect.
