I'd suggest rubber gloves,a bag to put them in so you aren't littering,and keep a small cooler w/ those re-freezable ice packs in it, then just throw the rabbits in a large ziplock and then into the cooler. You could even grab one of those 'soft' coolers and bring that into the area you are hunting-keep it in the shade close by, and have at it.

Congratulations on your first successful hunt, and to answer your question death to getting chilled down in weather of that temperature, in 50 minutes-for sure you are fine.You are on the right track, kill quickly and cleanly, field dress, and get the animal chilled as soon as you can. Nice work-Enjoy your hard work, its so satisfying..
