A baby rabbit is called a kit. A female is a doe and a male is a buck.

The typical old age life span is about ten years, and does can produce litters of up to 12 baby bunnies monthly.

The life cycle of a rabbit could be described as:

  • Conception (gestation lasts 1 month)
  • Birth
  • Nursing rabbits in the nest (for the first 4 to 6 weeks)
  • Baby rabbits
  • Sexual maturity (at 6 or 7 months of age)
  • Adulthood (at 1 year of age)
  • Old age (at 6 or 7 even years of age)
  • Death (between 8 and 12 years of age)

Many rabbits are eaten by predators such as owls, hawks, or coyotes before they reach the age of maturity. Rabbits are not rodents, but instead are classified as lagomorphs.
