Did you know?
“Conejo” is a Spanish word that means rabbit or bunny?
The Conejo Valley was so named because of the abundance of rabbits which were present even as far back as 1542 when the area was discovered by Juan Rodriguez Cabrillo?
There are two species of rabbits common in the Conejo Valley, the hardier desert cotton tails which travel as far as 15 acres and the smaller brush rabbits that prefer to stay closer to home in the dense brushy cover of chaparral vegitation?
That each Spring evening after the museum closes, as many as a half dozen “conejos’ can be seen keeping the lawn in front of the Grand Porch neat and trim?
