Here's why:
* Rabbits are driven by instinct: Their primary focus is on survival, reproduction, and maintaining their territory. They don't possess the cognitive abilities for complex emotions like jealousy.
* They don't form emotional bonds like humans: While they can bond with their owners and other rabbits, their bonds are primarily based on companionship and shared space.
* Motherhood is a natural instinct: A female rabbit will be focused on caring for her kits, not feeling jealous of her friend's offspring.
However, there might be some changes in behavior you might notice:
* Increased territoriality: The mother rabbit might be more protective of her nest and kits, leading to some territorial interactions with the other rabbit.
* Shifting attention: The mother rabbit will spend more time caring for her young, which might mean less time interacting with her friend.
It's important to note that if you see any signs of aggression or unusual behavior, it's always best to consult with a veterinarian or rabbit expert to rule out any underlying medical issues or behavioral problems.
