Breeders in Belgium crossed a Swiss Fox with a Netherland Dwarf to create this breed.
The Lionhead, a bunny with longer hair around its face and rear, was created as a result of a genetic mutation known as the "mane" gene.
The breed eventually found its way to the United States in the 1990s, where it was recognized by the American Rabbit Breeders Association in 2014.
Lionheads are a lively and friendly breed that make excellent pets, especially for people with children. They do, however, require more grooming and attention than other breeds.
”Typically, the mane is thick, woolly and soft with evident "crimping". Depending on the number of genes a Lionhead gets from each parent, it can have a double mane (two mane genes) or a single mane (one mane gene).”
”The only way to tell if a rabbit is single mane or double mane is when it is first born. A double mane Lionhead will have a noticeable V form around their skirt/flanks, while a single mane will look like a common rabbit directly after birth.”
”Past then, many factors contribute to how much mane each individual actually ends up having including chewing on the mane by themselves or others and matts.”
