Cancer

Cancer in Rabbits

The 80% study is from one colony in 1958. New evidence shows it's much much less likely, and highly tied to genetics

gleaned from these looks like the initial 1950's study was based in ONE herd and in latter studies instances were all less then 40% total occurrence of cancer . And that included all forms of tumors present at time of death. And the numbers were rabbits who died WITH lesions. Not rabbits that died FROM lesions. its grievously dishonest to claim an 80% chance of specifically uterine cancer , when uterine cancer was more like maybe 14%. And mostly occurred in rabbits older then 6 years.
