Rabbit multiplication

  • Kids have loved keeping bunnies as pets for generations, helped by the stories of Beatrix Potter and others handed down from grandmas and grandpas
  • Rabbit breeders and keepers are responsible when they ensure they look after their pet bunnies well, and never let them escape into the wild
  • The wild pest European rabbit was released on farmland near Geelong Victoria over 150 years ago and spread rapidly across southern Australia
  • Rabbits are followed closely by predator animals like foxes and feral cats across Australia. Foxes and Feral Cats also include bilbys and other native animals in their daily diets
  • Keep your pet bunnies carefully caged and looked after, and they won’t become a problem.
