Mellerud rabbit

The Mellerud rabbit is a Swedish variety of rabbit of medium size that comes in albino or black with white markings. The Mellerud rabbit has official landrace status in Sweden and is considered a critically endangered variety.
==History==
The Mellerud rabbit shares part of its history with the better-known Gotland rabbit. Both landraces originated from old lines of farm rabbits that were once common all over Sweden. These rabbits were referred to as ''bondkaniner'' ('farm-rabbits') in as early as 1881〔(Nordens Ark on Gotland rabbits (in Swedish) )〕 and were kept mainly for their meat and pelts. In the 1900s farm rabbits disappeared from most parts of the country are were largely believed to be extinct.
In the late 1990s, a few rabbits of the old farm type were discovered in the care of an older woman, referred to as "Edith i Sjöskogen", living in Mellerud. She has kept rabbits since at least 1937, though the line was believed to be older still. The only known outcrossing to another population had been done in 1968, when two black and white rabbits, one buck and one doe, were added to the group. The population had earlier consisted of 15-20 animals on average, decreasing to lower numbers in recent years. A total of 7 animals were acquired from Edith in the early 2000s, providing the foundation animals for a breeding project to preserve the line. The Mellerud rabbit received official landrace status by Jordbruksverket in 2011.〔>(Swedish Gotland Rabbit Society (in Swedish) )〕
Föreningen Gotlandskaninen ('Gotland Rabbit Society') is responsible for the preservation work of the Mellerud rabbit along with the Gotland rabbit. Registered rabbits are maintained in an official gene bank registry. As of 2013, approximately 160 registered Mellerud rabbits are registered with the Society and breeders aim to produce a higher number of animals to ensure high genetic diversity.〔
