Acually Canadian heraldry often sees our favourite rodent - the
beaver. I think you will find the full panoply of beasts including
other rodents such as the rabbit used heraldically. Squirrels as such

beasts their contribution - through the fur vair has been vairy
significant!

Rabbits aren't rodents. They're Lagomorphs.

They were moved from the order Rodentia to Lagomorphia in 1912.
