A biologist from the Bureau of Biological Survey with the Museum of Northern Arizona at Flagstaff identified hairs from clothing of Southwest inhabitants more than 15 centuries old as rabbit fur. The preserved hairs came from a Basket Maker I burial cave in northeastern Arizona during the 1984 Rainbow Bridge Monument Valley expedition, and resemble modern cottontail fur.
