Rabbits are very alert and will hide themselves when they encounter danger, and will also use behaviors such as stomping their feet to alert their companions. If a rabbit is overly nervous and scared, it may also scream loudly; in this case, the owner should immediately check on its condition and see if it is injured.

Rabbits will stomp their feet when they're scared. If there's something they're afraid of nearby, they'll stomp their feet to warn their companions of danger. If you see your rabbit stomping its feet, you should immediately check its surroundings for anything unusual, as rabbits are very alert.
