Bunnies aren't always the easiest creatures to intubate, so when the tube is in place you want it to stay there!
Using WOW bandage or string to tie the tubes in often slips and the tube doesn't remain secure.
Using a thin strip of Micropore/Duropore or similar to tie around the tube and then wrap around the back of the ears keeps the tube secure and easy to untie when you want to extubate.
