On the TV show “The Curse of Oak Island”, Charles Barkhouse is one of the historians, and in his off time, he’s a tour guide in Nova Scotia.

She was even nursing and protecting it like one of her own. The family says all the animals are healthy and growing under her care, and in a few weeks they hope to find homes for all of them and perhaps release the bunny back into the wild.
