Lion lop Charcoal
The Miniature Lion Lop is a breed of domestic rabbit recognised by the British Rabbit Council.[1] The breed is not currently recognized by the American Rabbit Breeders Association.[2] In addition to its lop ears, the distinguishing feature of this breed is its Lionhead-type mane and its small size: 1.5–1.6 kilograms (3.3–3.5 lb). The Miniature Lion Lop was developed in England in the early 2000s and accepted by the British Rabbit Council in 2006.[citation needed] Breeder Jane Bramley was responsible for much of the work required to achieve formal breed recognition.[citation needed] The Miniature Lion Lop is similar to the Miniature Lop, but with a mane around the head and a bib on the chest. The breed is growing in popularity within the UK.[citation needed]
