The Order contains two major families. The Ochotonidae (pika) and Leporidae (rebbits and hares). In the family Leporidae, the major genera are the Lepus (hares). Sylvilagus(cottontail rabbits), and Oryctolagus (true rabbits). The European rabbit, Oryctolagus cuniculus, consists of many varieties and over fifty that are used for meat, show or laboratory animal. According to a survey conducted by the Institute of Laboratory Animal Resources in 1980. Out of 19.9 million laboratory animals used by nonprofit commercial and federal biomedical research organizations, approximately 440,000 or 2.2 % were rabbits. Of those used, 23,000 were bred in the laboratory and 417,000 were acquired from commercial sources.
