A '''rabbit''' is an uncommon [[passive mob]] and is a source of [[rabbit's foot]], [[rabbit hide]], and [[raw rabbit]].

== Spawning ==
Rabbits spawn above [[grass]], [[snow block]]s, or [[sand]]. They generate individually after the generation of the world.

Rabbits of the following colors spawn in the following biomes:
* {{EntitySprite|Desert Rabbit}} Cream:
** {{BiomeLink|Desert}}
* {{EntitySprite|White Rabbit}} White, {{EntitySprite|White Splotched Rabbit}} Black & White:
** {{BiomeLink|Snowy Plains}}
** {{BiomeLink|Snowy Taiga}}
** {{BiomeLink|Grove}}
** {{BiomeLink|Snowy Slopes}}
** {{BiomeLink|Frozen Ocean}}{{only|Be|short=1}}
** {{BiomeLink|Frozen River}}{{only|Be|short=1}}
** {{BiomeLink|Snowy Beach}}{{only|Be|short=1}}
* {{EntitySprite|Black Rabbit}} Black, {{EntitySprite|Brown Rabbit}} Brown, {{EntitySprite|Salt Rabbit}} Brown & White:
** {{BiomeLink|Flower Forest}}
** {{BiomeLink|Taiga}}
** {{BiomeLink|Meadow}}
** {{BiomeLink|Old Growth Pine Taiga}}{{only|je|short=1}}
** {{BiomeLink|Old Growth Spruce Taiga}}{{only|je|short=1}}
** {{BiomeLink|Cherry Grove}}

Cream rabbits are the most common rabbit color and are found only in deserts and its variants. White and black and white rabbits are also quite common and spawn in snowy biomes such as [[snowy taiga]]s, [[snowy plains]], [[grove]]s and [[snowy slopes]]. Default rabbit colors such as brown, black and salt and pepper spawn naturally in [[flower forest]]s, [[taiga]]s and [[meadow]]s, but can also spawn in any other non-snowy biome via spawn eggs, commands, spawners or breeding. In all these places, groups of an adult and one to two babies spawn.

{{IN|BE}}, up to three baby rabbits spawn in flower forests and rabbits can also spawn in frozen aquatic biomes: [[snowy beach]]es, [[frozen ocean]]s, and [[frozen river]]s.

{{IN|JE}}, rabbits can also be found in [[giant tree taiga]]s.

The [[wolves]] and [[foxes]] found in taiga biomes may kill rabbits, so rabbits are generally more plentiful in the desert, flowery, or icy biomes.

[[#The Killer Bunny|The killer bunny]]{{only|je}} does not spawn naturally and must instead be spawned using the command {{cmd|summon rabbit ~ ~ ~ {RabbitType:99} }}.

Killing a baby rabbit yields no items nor experience.

== Behavior ==
Rabbits hop around aimlessly instead of walking. They can jump up almost 2 blocks in height. They slowly approach [[player]]s holding [[carrot]]s, [[golden carrot]]s or [[dandelion]]s within 8 [[block]]s. They do not follow players holding a [[carrot on a stick]].<ref>{{bug|MC-207993}}</ref> Rabbits also jump off of cliffs to reach carrots but do not go into [[lava]] for them. They randomly flee around if attacked. All non-hostile rabbits avoid players within 8 blocks and avoid most hostile [[mob]]s within 4 blocks (except [[slime]]s, [[magma cube]]s, and [[ghast]]s). They also avoid [[wolves]] within 10 blocks.

If {{cmd|gamerule mobGriefing}} is <code>true</code> and {{nbt|int|MoreCarrotTicks}} is less than or equal to 0, rabbits find and eat mature [[carrot|carrot crop]]s{{only|je}} / carrot crops with growth stage greater than 1{{only|be}}. This reduces the growth stage by one, removing the crop completely when the growth stage reaches 0.

Wild [[wolves]], [[foxes]], and stray [[cats]] hunt and kill rabbits.

=== Breeding ===
Rabbits can be [[Breeding|bred]] using [[carrot]]s, [[golden carrot]]s or [[dandelion]]s.

Baby rabbits usually inherit the same type of fur as one of the parents (47.5% chance of each), but there is a 5% chance for the baby to have the fur type matching the current [[biome]]. Baby rabbits grow to adulthood after 20 minutes, although their growth can be slowly accelerated using carrots, golden carrots or dandelions; each use reduces 10% of the remaining time to grow up.

Despite their hostile nature, killer bunnies can breed with other rabbits and with each other, having the unusual chance of creating a baby killer bunny.

A {{Section link|Toast}} rabbit does not produce a Toast rabbit baby, however.

{{IN|bedrock}} and {{el|education}}, baby rabbits follow their parents; this behavior is absent {{in|java}}.<ref>{{bug|MC-158608|||WAI}}</ref>

== Variations ==
[[File:Six Rabbit Types.png|thumb|left|The six natural types of rabbits. The cream rabbit is looking at the player.]]

Rabbits typically spawn using one of six different skins. Skins include regular brown fur, white fur with red eyes (albino), black mottled fur, black and white spotted fur, cream fur, and salt and pepper fur. The [[biome]] determines the skin used:

* Rabbits in snowy biomes have 80% white fur and 20% black and white fur.
* Rabbits in deserts have 100% cream fur.
* Rabbits in other biomes have 50% brown fur, 40% salt & pepper fur, and 10% black fur.
* Rabbits with specific skins can be spawned using {{cmd|summon rabbit ~ ~ ~ {RabbitType: (Number from 0 - 5)<nowiki>}</nowiki>}}{{only|je}} or {{cmd|summon rabbit ~ ~ ~ in_desert (gold)/in_snow (white)}}{{only|be}}.
* While it is possible to go above 5, this results in rabbits with skins identical to <code>RabbitType: 0</code>, with the exception of <code>RabbitType: 99</code>, the Killer Bunny.

There are two special variants of rabbits:
{{-}}

=== The Killer Bunny ===
{{Exclusive|java|section=1}}
<!-- "The Killer Bunny" redirects here. -->
[[File:Killer Bunny.png|thumb|right|upright|The current killer bunny texture]]
The '''killer bunny''' is an aggressive variant of the rabbit exclusive to {{el|je}} that is hostile toward [[player]]s and [[wolves]]. It has pure white fur and horizontal red eyes, compared to a normal rabbit's vertical eyes. It can be spawned only by using the {{cmd|summon rabbit ~ ~ ~ {RabbitType:99<nowiki>}</nowiki>}} command. It appears with a nameplate over its head reading "The Killer Bunny".

If the killer bunny finds any player within a 16-block radius, it hops toward the player much faster than a normal rabbit. It moves in a style similar to that of a [[spider]]. Once it closes in, it jumps at the player, dealing {{hp|8}} [[damage]] on Normal difficulty. If the player strikes at the killer bunny, it runs away for a brief moment, then returns to lunging at the player.

If it cannot find a player, the killer bunny actively seeks out and attacks any [[wolves]], including tamed wolves.

On peaceful difficulty, the killer bunny does not despawn, despite its hostile nature. It still attacks wolves and tamed wolves, but not the player.

The killer bunny can be bred and leashed and follows players holding [[carrot]]s, despite its hostile nature.

=== Toast ===
{{hatnote|"Toast" redirects here. For messages displayed on-screen, see [[Toasts]], [[Advancement]]s, [[Recipes]], or [[Tutorial hints]].}}

[[File:Toast Rabbit.png|thumb|left|upright|The rabbit named "Toast" using a [[name tag]]]]

Naming a rabbit '''Toast''' (using either a [[name tag]] or a renamed [[spawn egg]]) re-textures it to have the appearance of a black dutch, with a large black and white patch and more black fur around the face than the natural black and white spotted rabbit. Other than its name and skin, Toast behaves exactly like a normal rabbit. When Toast rabbits are bred, whether with each other or with regular rabbits, their offspring do not have the Toast pattern; they have a pattern consistent with the parents' original coloring prior to renaming. If the [[player]] renames a killer bunny to Toast, it still attacks players and wolves. Like the killer bunny, Toast does not spawn naturally.

This rabbit is based on user xyzen420's girlfriend's [http://www.reddit.com/r/minecraftsuggestions/comments/27hjog/to_themogminer_my_bunny_is_missing_please_help_me/ missing rabbit], which [[Ryan Holtz]] implemented as a memorial.<ref>{{tweet|TheMogMiner|483935152133775360|@xyZenTV The skin only appears when you name the rabbit Toast using a name tag, it isn't in the random pool:|Jul 1, 2014}}</ref>

== Sounds ==
{{Edition|Java}}:<br>
Regular rabbits use the Friendly Creatures sound category for [[Sound#Entity-dependent categories|entity-dependent sound events]]. Killer bunnies use the Hostile Creatures sound category for [[Sound#Entity-dependent categories|entity-dependent sound events]].
