Lionhead rabbits appeared in the 1990s in Belgium as a result of genetic mutation, which has led to the formation of the distinctive mane. The Lionhead Rabbit is a cross between the Swiss Fox Rabbit and the Belgium Dwarf. There are five color variations acceptable for the breed: Black, Chestnut Agouti, Tortoise, Siamese Sable, and Ruby Eyed White. These rabbits are very friendly and easy-going, and they make wonderful pets.
