Main Characteristics
The Amami Rabbit has a body length between 42 and 51 cms (16.5 - 20 inches), a tail length between 1 and 3.5 cms (0.4 - 1.4 inches) and they weigh between 2 and 3 kgs (4.4 - 6.6 lbs).
They are a distinctive rabbit with a bulky body and dark brown fur. They have a pointed nose, small eyes and short ears. Their legs are short and they have long, curved claws that they use for digging holes.
Amami Rabbits communicate with each other using clicking sounds and calling noises, which is unusual among rabbit species[1].
Habitat
Amami Rabbits are only found on Amami Ōshima and Tokunoshima, two small islands in the Ryukyu Archipelago south of Japan.
They are forest dwellers and they dig burrows to use as dens and nests. They are nocturnal and they use passages in the undergrowth to move around the forest.
