Under a dramatic loss of human life worldwide and an unprecedented challenge to public health, food systems
and jobs by the COVID-19 pandemic, the objective of this review paper is to introduce rabbit production as a
good future perspective of food production with the widen urbanization areas, narrower agricultural lands and
seriously epidemic diseases for animals and human beings. Rabbit production is easy to apply modernized and
automatic systems with low water consumption, environmental pollution and producing areas. However it
produces more meat products in a production unit compared to these of other animal species. Rabbit is an
herbivore species, which produces lower greenhouse gases compared to ruminants. The COVID-19 pandemic
caused health and human crisis threatening the food security and nutrition people around the world and its
relation to rabbit outbreaks are also presented in this paper.
In recent years rabbit population continue to increase in the developing countries such as China, Indonesia,
Vietnam, etc. for improving meat production by better use of green forages as compared to the developed ones.
However in many farms in Italia, France, Germany, etc. the rabbit production is applied the modernized feeding
systems and improved breeds with higher performance.With the increasing human population in the big cities,
animal production systems in the urban areas to supply foods for them are necessary to change from the high to
the low pollution, but higher yield and quality of products. Therefore a selection of animal species for raising to
improve food production and human livelihood, and to adapt to negatively global changes is necessary.
