A few rabbits arrived with British settlers in 1788, but it was not until 1859, when a Britishborn farmer named Thomas Austin brought 24 European rabbits to his land for hunting, that they began to live there. They are an excellent example of an invasive species, a nonnative species that does harm to its new environment. Rabbits have lived well in many different environments within Australia, such as grasslands, coastal areas, farmland, and even in towns or c
