Rabbit habitats include meadows, woods, forests, grasslands, deserts and wetlands. [67] While some rabbits live solitary lives, others live in groups, and the best known species, the European rabbit, lives in burrows, or rabbit holes. A group of burrows is called a warren. [67]

In addition to their meat, rabbits are used for their wool, fur, and pelts, as well as their nitrogen-rich manure and their high-protein milk. [81] Production industries have developed domesticated rabbit breeds (such as the well-known Angora rabbit) to efficiently fill these needs. Rodents have one pair of incisors in the upper and lower jaw, and then a gap before the flat, grinding cheek teeth.

There are twelve to thirteen pairs of ribs in a rabbit. The first seven pairs are sternal ribs, and the rest five to six pairs are asternal ribs. The sternal ribs have prominent head and articular processes. Rabbit muscles anatomy Rabbits are hindgut digesters. This means that most of their digestion takes place in their large intestine and cecum. In rabbits, the cecum is about 10 times bigger than the stomach and it along with the large intestine makes up roughly 40% of the rabbit's digestive tract. [38] The unique musculature of the cecum allows the intestinal tract of the rabbit to separate fibrous material from more digestible material; the fibrous material is passed as feces, while the more nutritious material is encased in a mucous lining as a cecotrope. Cecotropes, sometimes called "night feces", are high in minerals, vitamins and proteins that are necessary to the rabbit's health. Rabbits eat these to meet their nutritional requirements; the mucous coating allows the nutrients to pass through the acidic stomach for digestion in the intestines. This process allows rabbits to extract the necessary nutrients from their food. [39] Beischer, DE; Fregly, AR (1962). "Animals and man in space.

The adult female reproductive tract is bipartite, which prevents an embryo from translocating between uteri. [46] The two uterine horns communicate to two cervixes and forms one vaginal canal. Along with being bipartite, the female rabbit does not go through an estrus cycle, which causes mating induced ovulation.
