INTRODUCTION

The existence of rabbit with human being remained from the time immemorial. Romans were the first to domesticate wild rabbits. Wild rabbits [oryctolagus cuniculus] gained importance in Roman empire as game animals. Such rabbits were increasingly populated in and around southern Europe, North  Africa and Spain.

Rabbit raising started in other parts of Europe in the early middle ages but was not accepted as popular animal till 19th century. In Australia and New Zealand, the rabbit population was by and large higher. In North America only feral rabbits were abundant. Wild rabbits were in existence in Chili.

There are different views concerning the domestication of rabbits. Some say rabbits were domesticated by 1st century B.C. but others say that the first experiment in domestication of rabbits took place in monasteries of France between 6th and 10th century A.D.

Napoleon was regarded as the most famous rabbit breeder of all times.

Rabbit keeping in commercial base started in the last century. The scarcity of food following first and second world war pave the way for extensive rabbit rearing. Meat became popular due to it’s excellent quality. During those times rabbit’s flesh was denoted as ‘Underground Mutton’ and served as a source of food for rural families. Later on F.A.O. through different package programs encouraged the farmers for rabbit farming. Thus rabbit farming gradually spread to other countries.

In India from early sixties the rabbit farming gained importance in places like Himachal Pradesh, Jammu and Kashmir through introduction of German angora breed. In 1977 the government of India took much interest in rabbit raising in states and established a Central Research Station to encourage rabbit farming and to envisage research program to mitigate the problems in rabbit farming. Now rabbit farming is take up length and breadth of the country. But more attention is required to be made to popularize and commercialize the mutton of it.

For the economic growth of our country, Rabbit growing is considered as one of the best aspects. In the ancient days rabbits were living in forests, hill areas, uncultivated lands etc. but at present it is famous that rabbit are grown as pet animals in township areas and villages. The growing of rabbits is not only for meat purpose but also it should be noted that importance is being offered for their skin and hairs.
