British Giant Continental Rabbit

Meet Barney, our Continental Giant Rabbit, who lives next to the Children's Barn to greet all our visitors.

 

The Continental Giant is a very large breed of rabbit also known as the German Giant.

They can often grow larger than some dogs. The longest rabbit was 1.3m and the heaviest is 24 kgs. Their average lifespan is 4-5 years.

They are usually friendly with other animals and are easily litter trained to live inside as a house rabbit. However Fred and Barney do not get along so are housed separately.
