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.

Otherwise, if they get along, they can be together when you're there to supervise, but never when they're alone.
