Aesop would disapprove.
Behold, the Giant Rabbit. Carl Szmolinsky of Germany breeds these monster bunnies that are literally the size of a dog. No matter how many times we look at photos of these giant rabbits, they never cease to amaze us with their massive size.
This particular specimen might be larger than a first grader.
Now let’s compare to regular rabbits – note the striking difference in ear size:
This is just ridiculous.
this is a little over done! the “regular rabbit” in the picture is a black otter netherland DWARF so its not the size of a “regular” rabbit its a mini
Thank you for pointing this out, dearest reader. The video from which this photo was snagged was in German!
Iam interested in learning more about rabbits. iam keeping rabbits as i work with the ministry of livestock. this one amazed me because the ones we keep are different breeds and smaller. please you can contact me in my email and preferably if i can get a sponsor i would appreciate very much thank you. the rabbit in the photo i love it.
i live in australia and would love to get my own giant rabbit is there anywhere here that i can get one i love there size etc thanks
belinda, as far as i know, i think rabbit itself devastated australia’s wildlife & ecosystem. i wonder what a GIANT one would do to australia.
sir
one of my friend in Australia said rabbit is a good business.were can i get a breed & how much it cost. By the way I’m from Philippines and I’m interested on how to breed a rabbit

EASTERBUNNY. you stole him!
The giant rabbits are not bred as pets but as food. It’s sad but true. 
They also use the pelts and hair of the rabbit to make clothing but mainly they are bred for their meat which is sold to restaurants for a good price (I think worldwide).
So if you order rabbit at the fancy restaurant it just might not be freshly hunted wild rabit, it just might be the meat from a giant rabbit.
i know its horrible:(
I’m getting my own rabbit and it is soo cute:)
WOW THATS A HUGE BUNNY!!! LOL. Well then i guess we know where the easter bunny pawns off his spawn. And i agree that using them for food is sad but some people think its one of the best meats out there. Very paining to see but also inevitably true!!! Well at least now i know what i have to deal with when i go to my homeland,(never been there before) I might have to lay off the carrots for a while huh! lol
P.S. I must commend you on your breeding skills hes huge!

if you look at the angle of the photos it makes you wonder if the rabbit is actually so huge. obviously it’s big, but the breeder is careful to hold it far in front of him to make the rabbit look as big as possible.
also, although some of these rabbits are probably bred for food, the ones bred by this man are used in competitions, there’s a documentary by mark dolan that features this man, and this rabbit has won various “big bunny” competitions.
In the first picture, the man’s hand is very large. Now, he could just have that big of hands, or maybe the picture is photoshopped? My guess is the second, because I’ve never seen such a large watch!
I will like to know more about german gaint rabbit. The feed formulation,adaptive feature,it’s thermocomfort and thermoneutra zone of the animal.
ooooommmmmmmmmmggggggggggggggggggg i can not belive this maaaaaan
