In between your rabbits back legs you will see 2 ball-shaped protuberances that have no fur on them: these are the testes. Sometimes they are hidden behind fur. Actually, these are the scrotums: the testes are inside the scrotums, and you can't actually see them.

Keep in mind that rabbits can draw their testes up into the body cavity so they are not always visible. This is an adaption that helps prevent injury while digging/fighting/running etc. Especially when a rabbit is frightened, he will pull his testes into his abdomen. You may still be able to locate the scrotums, but when they're empty they can be hard to find.

Also, baby rabbits are born with the testes in their abdomen, and they don't descend into the scrotums until they grow a little older (around 4 months of age, they are usually descended, but it can take up to 5 months).

What does kiss the rabbit's nose mean?

This statement can be a crass way of suggesting fellatio. Other variants of this statement are: * "How would you like to kiss a rabbit between the ears?" * "How would you like to kiss a rabbit on the nose?" All statements are typically followed by the speaking male pulling his pants pockets inside-out, making those pockets look like rabbit ears.

Does the male rabbit have the scrotum on top of its penis?

No, the male rabbit doesn't have the scrotum on top of his penis. Male rabbits have two scrotums located below the penis (closer to the anus), one right beside the other. In babies, the testes are in the rabbit's abdomen: they descend into the scrotum some time between 9-20 weeks. Adult male rabbits, when they're terrified, can also pull their testes back into the abdomen. A male rabbit who's been neutered won't have any scrotum because they'll have withered away. If your male rabbit has a lump above his penis, something is wrong. It could be a tumour, or maybe a parasite, or something else -- it's hard to say. You should bring the rabbit to the vet for treatment. See the related questions below for details.
