Welcome to National 4-H Rabbit Curriculum

 

Are you ready to learn more about rabbits?

You have many interesting and exciting activities ahead in this series. You'll learn about rabbit parts, breeds, costs of raising a rabbit, how to care for a rabbit and much, much more. If you don't have a rabbit, some of the activities will help you decide what kind of rabbit might be best for you. Don't be afraid to jump right in and don't give up if the activity doesn't work right the first time. You're still learning, right? The most important thing is trying.
