Rabbits of any gender can be aggressive with each other, and if they're allowed to fight they can cause serious damage, even leading to death.

You should never let rabbits fight. Even the small tear in the skin can lead to a huge abscess. When rabbits have fought:

  • Separate aggressive rabbits immediately
  • Treat any wounds (first aid and vet care)
  • Socialize the aggressive rabbit(s), and provide them with a lifestyle that makes them feel secure
  • Re-introduce the rabbits carefully

Rabbits fight for territorial reasons, sexual reasons, and out of anger/fear.

An answer for rabbit breeders: Yes, a female rabbit can kill another female rabbit. They will need their space. Especially as they near the breeding age.

A different opinion on breeding: Rabbits are overpopulated in urban areas around the world. In North America, at least hundreds of healthy rabbits are killed in shelters every year just because there's no more room for them. Consider wisely before breeding your rabbit. It is widely recommended to neuter/spay your pet rabbits.
