Which two types of rabbits are found in Pennsylvania?

The New England cottontail and the Eastern cottontail are indeed the two types of rabbits found in Pennsylvania. The Eastern cottontail is the more common species, widely recognized for its presence in various habitats including fields and forests. The New England cottontail, while less prevalent, has been noted in specific regions and is of particular interest due to conservation efforts focused on its habitat.

In this context, both species share similarities in habitat preferences and ecological roles, but understanding their distribution in Pennsylvania helps in effective wildlife management and conservation strategies. Knowing these distinctions is important for anyone involved in wildlife control as it aids in identifying target species for management practices. The other options either include species not native to Pennsylvania, such as the Black-tailed jackrabbit and the Swamp rabbit, or incorrectly state the available species.
