I was wondering if anyone has ever researched the effects of pain on small animals like rabbits?
<|assistant|>
Yes, this has been researched. Pain in small animals like rabbits can cause them to become agitated, decreased appetite, decrease in activity levels, and may affect their social interaction with other animals. It can also impact their ability to heal, making them more susceptible to infection. Additionally, prolonged pain can lead to stress-related changes such as decreased immobility and increased heart rate. Other physiological changes such as changes in blood pressure, body temperature, respiratory rate, or metabolic rate can also be seen.
