The enclosure conditions allowed detailed study of dispersal of individual juveniles from their natal ...

Abstract This book reviews the biology of the rabbit as a successful invader and colonizer, summarizing many long-term scientific studies and the history of efforts to control it in Britain, continental Europe, Australia, and New Zealand. Enjoyed for its meat and fur, but cursed for its impact on ecosystems and agriculture, the rabbit is

Paratuberculosis in European wild rabbits from the Iberian Peninsula
Research in Veterinary Science, 2011Of the non-ruminant wildlife species known to harbor Mycobacterium avium paratuberculosis (MAP), the rabbit (Oryctolagus cuniculus) is thought to pose the greatest risk of transmission to cattle. We analyzed 80 hunter-harvested wild rabbits from a core study area in southern Spain, and sera from 157 wild rabbits sampled opportunistically on seven ...

Bait Consumption by the European Rabbit in Southern England
The Journal of Wildlife Management, 1987The consumption of nontoxic, sliced carrot baits by 10 free-living European rabbit (Oryctolagus cuniculus) populations was investigated using Rhodamine B dye and fluorescent acetate floss fibers as bait markers. Total bait consumption was highest after 5-8 days of exposure.

Latrine Use by the European Rabbit (Oryctolagus cuniculus)
Journal of Mammalogy, 1991In addition to depositing fecal pellets throughout their range, European rabbits ( Oryctolagus cuniculus ), like several other mammals, deposit feces at specific “latrine” sites. In a free-living island population of rabbits, marked individuals of known age, sex, and social status were observed and their behavior at latrines was recorded.
