OH, THOSE LOP-EARS — Pat Murray of
Dublin was as captivated by this giant English
top-eared rabbit, owned by Marvin Boothroyd,
as the other visitors to the South Huron Rabbit
Breeders Association—show held at Seaforth
High School on Saturday, (Expoaitor Photo) ipiiirtegs Director
Somewhere lit California
there's a. company with a
singleminded interest in Rex
rabbits. •
Jerry Bryczka of Ancaster,
Ontario, president of ' 'the
Southern Ontario Rabbit
Breeders., and one of the
exhibitors at the South
Huron Rabbit Breeders As-
sociation_ Silp),y, held in
Seaforiii on Saturday, said
the Rex rabbit is noted. for its
Short, shiny velvet-like fur,
With the Greenpeace . or-
ganization campaigning
against the slaughter of baby
seals in Newfoundland, and
other ecology-minded or-
ganizations trying to prevent
the killing of other species,
the California company is
buying all the Rex rabbits
they can locate.
In a shdrt time, the fur
from these rabbits, marketed
under a different name and
with a• very expensive price
tag, will be' showing up in
exclusive fur stores across
North America.
Mr. Bryczka said coats
made from the rabbit fur will
sell for thousands of dollars.
The rabbit breeder, who
learned . about the sudden
popularity of Rex rabbits at a
recent show he attended in
Saginaw, IVIichigan, said the
California company seems to
have unlimited funds and
will be using the rabbit hides '
in, everything from gloves to
hats and coats.
Mr, Bryczka himself is a
devoted rabbit breeder, and
has had "rabbits all my
life."'
One of his favorite chores
is going to-oublic libraries in
this area and speaking to
• children about the care, and
feeding of rabbits and the
advantages of having the
furry little animals as pets.
The rabbit breeder said
the American Rabbit Breed-
ers Association, the parent
body of the Canadian rabbit
clubs, now recognizes about
38 different breeds of rabbits
from the slender, two-
colored Dutch rabbits to the
American Checkered Giant
breeds.
One tip Mr. Bryszka has
for anyone who is handling
rabbita is IteVer. to pick the
animal up by his ears,. the
Medici(' once teeCoMmen,ded
for bundling rabbits,
Mr, Bryczka said the
animal should be picked up
by the scruff of the neck, and
''a hand placed under the
rabbit's rump to balance the
weight. .
In Saturday's show, held
at Seaforth District High
school, Mr. BrycZka said
there are two main kinds of
rabbits • those which are
raised for their meat, and, the
fancier breeds like the
Belgian Hare which are
raised for pets or for show.
The three breeds most
commonly raised for their
meat are New Zealands,
Californians and Silver
Martens.
Breeds which make
popular •pets include the
small Polish' rabbits, and the
English, and French-lopped
ear rabbits with their long
ears which sometimes
..
measure,,us much as 24 to 28
inches adross from the tip of
one ear to the tip of the
other. •
Mr. Bryczka himself, who
keeps anywhere between 25
to 125 rabbits, is now down
to ithree breeds - New
Zealands, the popular' white
rabbits; Polish rabbits and
the American Dutch breed

Mr- Elry*a said rabbits
