Rabbits, like all mammals, have lungs, not gills. Lungs are the respiratory organs of mammals, including rabbits, and they are adapted for breathing air.

Gills are specialized for extracting oxygen from water, whereas lungs are designed for extracting oxygen from the air. Rabbits breathe by inhaling air through their nostrils, which then passes into their lungs, where oxygen is exchanged with carbon dioxide in the blood.
