Salt Bunny?

2025-06-24 - North Vernon, IN - Photo by Pen
Saw this young rabbit (and several others) in the parking lot to the Discovery Pond Trail in the Muscatatuck National Wildlife Refuge on a recent sweltering afternoon. I'm not sure why they would choose a hot parking lot over the abundant greenery that surrounds it, unless maybe the gravel has some residual salt that would be handy in the punishing early summer heat?
