It considers the full spectrum of commercial rabbit husbandry, including intensive, semi-intensive, and organic systems for meat, fur and leather. Drawn from an international authorship, the book addresses practical and fundamental topics. In comprehensive sections, readers will find easy-to-read chapters on: • rabbit breeds, anatomy essentials and lagomorph physiology • rabbit production with details on animal facilities and farm design, international trading, rabbit meat processing and biosafety, including a vivid appendix on meat inspection • rabbit herd and health management, considering latest findings in welfare and behavior, preventive medicine, antimicrobial resistance and demedication to necropsy and specimen collection • significant rabbit diseases, covering encephalitozoonosis cuniculi, rabbit enteropathies, and many more • complete veterinary treatment, supplemented by reference ranges and interpretation of hematological and biochemical values Besides an increasing keeping of pet rabbits, the animals are gaining interest for sustainable food production, leading to a rise in farming in various parts of the world. In this context, the present guide provides valuable contributions for consulting veterinarians and students, industry professionals, breeders and technicians, as well as for experts from the small and companion animal sector. The relevance of rabbit farming from the viewpoints of greenhouse gas reduction and sustainable use of ecological resources (use of local feed) also creates useful links for readers interested in the sustainable development goals SDG 2 (Zero Hunger) and SDG 12 (Responsible Consumption and Production). “This is an excellent handbook produced by technicians and clinicians, in collaboration with academia, for anyone interested in learning about this unique and very addictive animal species. It is undoubtedly a beneficial tool for veterinary clinicians and agronomists, as well as professional and amateur rabbit breeders. It gave me great pleasure to be able to read this manuscript, and I hope that the readers share my excitement at seeing an initiative of this calibre and quality in our industry, and that they can enjoy a professional book that provides solutions and clear answers to their questions.” Francesc Xavier Mora Igual, Cuninews Technical Director & Assoc.
