rabbits normally only fight when another rabbit or animal is trying to take its food or even its home. it also depends whether or not the rabbit is a pet or not, because if it is not a pet, it is obviously raised differently than if it was. Any rabbit, any sex, any relation and NOT altered will eventually fight as they are very territorial and they fight to establish dominance and to drive the other rabbit away.

∙ 15y agoMature (sexually) rabbits of the same gender will fight because their instinct is to ensure they get to mate, even if they have to kill off their rivals to do it. Rabbits of the same sex should be housed separately although, sometimes, they're OK in the same enclosure if they've been neutered.

Some can, Some can't. It all depends. Usually a male and female can get along, but they will be multiplying and making little rabbits. 2 Males on the otherhand don't usually get along. They will fight with each other on some occasions and try to claim dominance. I have had this problem with my two male rabbits and we had to have them seperated.

How does a rabbit react when it sees another rabbit?
Rabbits are social animals and enjoy company! But, like humans, some rabbits just don't get along: always take special precautions when introducing new rabbits. Rabbits happy and curious about each other will go up to each other and sniff on the new rabbit and around them. Rabbits are very alert. If pet rabbits aren't neutered/spayed, they will likely greet each other by fighting (scratching at one another, or worse, disembowling each other), or mating. Don't ever let rabbits fight: even a small cut, one invisible to the human eye, can turn into a serious problem (infection, abscess, etc.). It's not advised to let rabbits mate: caring for pregnant/nursing rabbits requires specialty care, and what will you do with the rabbits? There are rabbits in shelters awaiting adoption right now: don't add to the problem. See the related question below for more info and helpful links.

Why does a boy rabbit keep trying to mate his brother?
Rabbits of both sexes mount each other as a show of dominance. Mounting isn't always sexual. Dominance can turn into aggression, especially if one or both males aren't neutered, so you might want to separate the rabbits as a precaution. Definitely separate them if they're fighting: see the related question below for details and links.
