BWF Featured on NBC4, Investigation: Trafficking Sick Bunnies - 2013 Genesis Awards Winner
Thank you to all who supported us thus far! BWF has taken in almost 3000 un-weaned baby bunnies from Santee Alley since June 2008. We have an open door to the community and are eager to assist all unaware buyers who are lured into buying unweaned baby animals that in most cases die within a few days of purchase as they are not old enough make it without mother’s milk. Please DO NOT buy these bunnies. They are NOT "dwarfs!" They are only BABIES and need MILK in order to survive! Please help us keep up the good fight!
