What is a bunny fart?

Rabbits fart because of the gas that is produced during digestion. Food products make their way to the rabbit's cecum where their gut bacteria break down the food and create gas as a by-product. This area of the rabbit's digestive tract becomes a chamber where gas builds up as food is being digested.
