January 12th, 2010Rabbit: Lionhead Lop
Origins: Lionhead Lops were bred by crossing Lionhead rabbits with Holland Lops to get a bunny with the pronounced mane of the Lionhead, but with the floppy ears of the Holland Lop. They were introduced at around the same time as the Lionhead, in the late 1990s. It is still not recognized in most countries as having a consistent breed type.
