Rabbit Information Service provides information available on a wide variety of topics concerning compassion to animals and vegetarianism. Vegetarianism is gaining popularity in Australia especially since many people are aware of the huge amount of damage done to Australia's fragile environment by introduced beef and sheep. Land continues to be cleared in Australia for beef grazing including the clearance of thousands of acres in Queensland where native animals such as koalas have died as the irreplaceable rainforest is bulldozed.
Rabbits are an example of an animal which is both petted and eaten by the same culture.
Rabbits are popular pets which are either confined to a cage, or allowed to roam free in their guardian's residence (which greatly increases their potential lifespan).
The rabbit would indeed need to be killed to have its ovaries inspected, but the death of the rabbit was not the indicator of the results.
Rabbits produce white meat that is fine-grained, high in protein, low in fat, highly palatable, low in cholesterol, and that can be substituted for poultry in most recipes.
Rabbits raised for meat are generally marketed as fryers, weighing 4.5 to 5 pounds, live weight.
Including rabbits on the farm or ranch is intended to be a supplemental income source, not a primary income source.
