rabbit run

Outdoor bunny pen

A rabbit run is an enclosed outdoor space where pet rabbits can exercise and graze safely.

Unlike a hutch, which is primarily for shelter, a run provides room for movement—typically a wire-mesh enclosure placed on grass: We set up the rabbit run in the garden so they could stretch their legs.

The term also describes paths worn by wild rabbits through vegetation.
