What breed of rabbit is more inclined to scream?

Question

Is there a particular breed of rabbit that is more prone to screaming? I'm thinking about buying a pet rabbit and was wondering if there are certain breeds that tend to vocalize?

Answer 1

There's not one specific breed of rabbit that screams. They all do when terrified, over excited, or in worse case, dying. See the link below for specific's in rabbit noises and what they mean.

cheers!

Answer 2

All rabbit breeds are equally inclined to scream. But be aware that a rabbit only screams if it feels threatened and believes his very existence is about to be snuffed out.

Answer 3

I have three rabbits and I've never heard any of them scream. It's my understanding that the only do this when their in extreme pain. Rabbits in general are pretty quiet animals. Mine do a low growl and lunge at me when angry or when I want to put them to bed for the night. I have one who thumps loudly if there is a noise that doesn't seem right to him. (such as my youngest daughter throwing a temper tantrum) Hence the name Thumper.

Princess oinks when she's eating something she thinks is pretty tasty. Other than the noises of them playing with their toys, tossing their food bowls, or getting into paper their quiet.

Answer 4

I've never known any rabbit to "scream" unless something scared it. I have kept several breeds (Rex, Lops and Angoras) and they all vocalize some, the only time any of them ever screamed was when my neighbors dog got near them and attacked their compound.

Answer 5

Rabbits are pretty quiet. They purr with their teeth, or grind their teeth loudly when they're hurt, they may coo when they're happy, and they thump their hind legs when they're scared. Screaming is reserved for extreme pain that typically ends only with their death. It's not a good thing.
