Craniometric Analysis Of European Rabbit (Oryctolagus Cuniculus) Breeds To Trace Out Intraspecific And Inter Gender Morphometric Variations, Muhammad Rizwan, Rana Manzoor Ahmad, Abdul Majid Khan, Misbah Khalid, Muhammad Wajid

Journal of Bioresource Management

The family Liproidae expresses the significant variation of morphometric features at species level. In already available literature on the European rabbit (Oryctolagus cuniculus) the idea is proposed that there can be variation in the morphometric character of different breeds of Oryctolagus cuniculus but there are negligible scientific research base evidences for it. So in this study interbreed craniometric comparison of the European rabbit is carried out to trace out their intergender and intraspecific morphometric variations. The study material consists of 32 sexually mature rabbits belong to two breeds of European rabbit that are New Zealand rabbit (eight males and …
