Finding Cold Cottontails
Cottontails have thin fur that offers poor insulation from the cold.
To find them during inclement weather, it helps to think like a rabbit. Where would you go to escape the cold if all you had to wear was a light jacket?
Start by hunting places that are both sheltered from the wind and open to warm rays of sunshine; then move to other locales offering protection.
