I needed to think for a while on what to do for x. I thought of all the obvious x things like excellent rabbits, extra information and so forth, but nothing really set. Then I thought of a rabbit app I have on my phone which led me to wanting to chat about rabbit x-rays.
Visible Bunny
The Visible Bunny is a sanitized internal look at the inner workings of a rabbit. By sanitized I mean they don’t actually show you are real rabbit, but drawings that show most of what makes up a bunny body.
They do a pretty good job at showing the major parts of a rabbit, the heart, lungs, rib cage etc. You can see each part individually or you can layer them so you can see how they lay inside your bunny.
Not only that you can view the entire rabbit, or take a closer look at three different parts of the rabbit’s anatomy.
I have found visible bunny to be a great introduction to introducing rabbit anatomy.
Actual Rabbits
If you ever need pictures of actual real rabbit anatomy contacting rabbit breeders will garner results for you. From people who painstakingly put together rabbit skeletons.
To those who will take pictures of rabbit innards (don’t look at the next picture if it will freak you out). Rabbit folks are generally happy to help you understand the animals that you are caring for. From head shots, chest shots, specific organs or like the image below, of a particular body system. Many vets don’t understand these wonderful little animals, so we need to depend on each other to care for them well. Sharing knowledge through pictures is a huge boon!

Very interesting – I have always enjoyed examining the skeletons of animals. Probably my time from when in education at a zoo. The Education dept had many cool real and replica skeletons for us to use to teach classes.
I find looking at skeletons to be quite interesting as well… I am even more amazed at people who have the ability to put them all together correctly.
This one was a bit much for me but interesting that you have a good digital source to help learn about the insides. I often forget to look for things like that.
I’m sorry. Should I have put a warning up? I thought maybe I did but perhaps I was forgot…. I will review it and see.
