The rabbit ground-digger is a small bird about 16 centimeters long. It lives in open areas of South America and digs long burrows in the ground for nesting.
The rabbit mound-builder differs in its ability to dig long burrows in hard soil where other birds do not nest. It helps control insect populations and serves as prey for local predators.
