How many bones does a rabbit have?

[JenerationX]

Interesting that a dog would have that many... seems like a lot. A horse has 205. You'd think they would have more, but the increase in neck and tail is compensated for in the loss of fingers and toes I guess.

I wouldn't think there would be that many bones in the tail?? :shock:
They shouldn't even count the tail bones, since that can vary so much.

My cat disagrees.
Tails are super important, and are not to be discounted.

What a weird, informative subject to discuss, and it seems that no one has come up with a definitive answer yet. I am glad I read this!!

I've tried googling this and haven't found a good answer. I was hoping someone here might know.

Thanks everyone!
