how do rabbits age compared to humans
The different lifestages of a rabbit, how long they live, how age influences behaviour, and how to care for rabbits from youth to old age... A rabbit's lifespan is influenced by breed, living conditions and healthcare but the average lifespan is likely to be around 8 to 9 years.It can be helpful to think of one year in a rabbit's life as ten years in a human's life, so an 8 year old rabbit could be thought of as approximately 80 years old in human terms. rabbit's behaviour at this age is lively and playful and regular handling from the age of 4 or 5 weeks is important to socialise the rabbit. Baby rabbits should be checked frequently for potential health problems as this is a particularly vulnerable age for them.
