Flemish giants are a domesticated type of rabbit that is considered to be the largest breed of rabbit in the world.

The first records of them show their origin in Flanders, which is the northern region of Belgium. There were several ancient meat and fur breeds of rabbit that likely went into the Flemish, one of which is the ancient Patagonian rabbit. Unfortunately the Patagonian is now extinct.

Flemish Giant rabbits were also responsible for a United States “rabbit boom” back in the 1880s. Farmers and people with small acreage could raise large amounts of rabbits that were dual purpose. Due to their size they were prized for both meat and fur. That was when the breed as largely imported into the United States.
