Nutrition of the Rabbit (2nd Edition)

The digestive system of the rabbit is characterized by the relative importance of the caecum and colon when compared with other species (Portsmouth, 1977). As a consequence, the microbial activity of the caecum is of great importance for the processes of digestion and nutrient utilization, b...
