    • 1955, Wisconsin conservation bulletin, Volume 20, page 36:
      We have already seen how forest rabbitat management improves the forest stand and helps other forest game species.
    • 1978, Anthony J. Acerrano, The practical hunter's handbook, page 15:
      This may necessitate canvas-shelled britches and a long-sleeved hunting jacket, since thorns, needles, and burrs are part of rabbitat.
