It is believed that the breeding of Lionhead rabbits originally began in Belgium or France. The Lionhead rabbit is especially popular with children because it is quite small and enjoys being around them. It particularly delights in finding a playmate among them. It loves to frolic in the grass and is always ready to learn new games. With its large, black eyes, it looks adventurous. Will you play with me? It also enjoys having its lion mane, which surrounds its head, petted. So fluffy!.
