What is an animal warren?

A warren is a network of burrows used as a home by rabbits, particularly wild rabbits, hares, or other small animals. The term "warren" is also sometimes used to refer to a large group of rabbits living in such a burrow system.

Rabbit warrens are typically found in areas with loose, sandy soil, and they can be quite extensive, with some warrens covering several acres of land. The burrows themselves can be several feet deep, and they often have multiple entrances.

Rabbits use warrens to escape from predators, to raise their young, and to store food. Warrens can provide a safe and comfortable environment for rabbits, and they can help them to survive in a variety of climates.

Some other animals that may use warrens include foxes, badgers, and coyotes.
