Why is lighting important in a rabbitry?

Because rabbits will not reproduce if it's too dark
To ensure the rabbits can see their food
To keep the rabbits warm
For aesthetic purposes

The correct answer is: Because rabbits will not reproduce if it's too dark

Lighting is important in a rabbitry because it can simulate seasonal changes, affecting the reproductive patterns of rabbits. Too much darkness can cause rabbits to stop reproducing, as they are biologically programmed to do so in response to longer days and increased light. Option B is incorrect because rabbits do not have exceptional eyesight and can still consume their food without much light. Option C is incorrect because although some heat lamps may be used to keep the rabbits warm, overall temperature regulation should be done through proper insulation and ventilation. Option D is incorrect because while lighting can add aesthetic value to a rabbitry, it is not the primary reason for its importance.
