Best Answer

The killing of any animal -- including rabbits -- for food or food is called "slaughter." If the rabbit is killed because it's very sick or injured, and killing it puts it out of its misery, the term used is "euthanasia" (or, in slang, you "put the rabbit down" or "put the rabbit to sleep"). For any other killing of a rabbit, "killing" is usually the word used. The word "murder" specifically means an unlawful killing and isn't generally used in reference to animals (unless you're trying to make a political point).
