Injured Leg

Question
My mother and I have recently found a domestic rabbit. It cant walk on its left back leg. We had a  look and It apears that he has been in a fight and has lots of small bites on his leg. What should I do to get him walking again?

Answer
The best thing I can suggest is to take him to a vet, because you found him, and he is wounded, I would not suggest treating or trying to treat this at home.  Rabbits can pick up lots of diseases and virus's while "roaming" and so in my opinion the best thing you can do for him is to have him seen by a vet.

Good Luck
