Do you guys bring your ipod while camping or hiking? I've learned my lesson of not bringing my ipod while hiking or have something to protect it. Ok so I saw this wild rabbit and I wanted to feed him. (I was visiting Yellow Stone Park). My ipod dropped out of my pockets as I bent down to feed the rabbit. That little devil rabbit went straight for my ipod and started to bite it. Its pretty funny how something so small can angry you.
First off, you shouldn't be feeding the bunnies , no matter how cute they are. They are wild animals. Never feed the animals. Second, why take an iPod? Doesn't it kinda cancel out the reason you go into the woods? To get away from it all? I thought about carrying my iPod, but realized how much of nature's symphony I'd miss. Glad I left it at home.
And yeah, rabbits will eat anything. Include rubber insulation around power cords.
i bring my ipod as one of my in case of emergency items and only take it out and listen to music when i didn't enjoy the new trail so and so...but i usually hang it around my neck...with a protective plastic case.
and yeah, i agree with the "don't feed the animals" thing.
my cat would nibble on anything in my hands just to get my attention. when i'm on the mobile phone, he'd gnaw on the phone and if he's ignored he'll proceed either to my fingers or my elbow. my phone's full of nicks and scratches. he's so adorable he gets away with practically anything. i'll be terrible mother for sure.

i agree with you brad! when i'm out there, i dont bring anything that would distract the quiet and serenity of nature. but it's diff strokes for diff folks, huh?
I live with a rabbit. She's pretty much in charge around here...
Rabbits will indeed eat just about anything. She's taken chunks out of my yoga mat, remote control and my rain galoshes. Lucky thing that she chews it up well enough to pass it...
When camping in rabbit country, keep anything rubber off the ground. Apparently bunnies find it delicious!
I had a friend years back who had a pet rabbit. The critter was better trained than many cats. But it had one bad habit - rubber yummies! She could NOT keep erasers on her pencils! Anything rubber - yep!
Brand is telling the truth. Prevent animals from getting into your
food. Consider placing it in your vehicle, or hanging it in a tree (12
feet high, 4 feet from tree trunk). Here are some points in my blog:http://bit.ly/wHZvJS
