World Distribution of the Rabbit Oryctolagus-Cuniculus on Islands. Flux, J., E., C. & Fullagar, P., J. Mammal Review, 22:151-205, 1992. Website abstract bibtex Both domestic and wild-type European Rabbits Oryctolagus cuniculus (L.) have been liberated on islands all over the world for a variety of reasons: for sport, to farm for meat or fur, as food for other animals or bait for lobster pots, to control vegetation, amuse tourists, and even to conserve representative populations from myxomatosis. Results of these introductions have likewise varied. from complete failure to densities so high as to denude completely the island of vegetation and soil. Some interesting populations have survived remarkably adverse conditions for up to 100 years before becoming extinct. Others provide natural experiments on the effects of introduced predators, competitors. or diseases like myxomatosis.\rWe list 800 islands or island groups on which Rabbits have been liberated, giving name, location, latitude and longitude, and area, followed by date of introduction, type of rabbit, population changes, present status, and effects of the Rabbits on their environment. For many islands information is still meagre of completely lacking; we hope that this provisional list will stimulate readers to send us additions and corrections, or to publish the data themselves.
