In this Tuesday, June 21, 2016 photo, a male New England cottontail rabbit sits in a pen at the Roger Williams Park Zoo, in Providence, R.I. In an ambitious restoration project, following 50 years of decline in the population of the species due to reduced habitat, federal and state authorities are raising the rabbits in captivity to release scores of tiny bunnies this summer into areas where thickets and brush have returned.
