New Zealand Red

C. P. Gilmore, was the first President of the New Zealand red club 1916. Back then, there was not yet such a thing as a New Zealand white rabbit. Cortland Palmer (C. P.) Gilmore was born in 1889 and died in 1981. He was the first president of the National New Zealand Red Rabbit Club in 1916, a precursor to the American Federation of New Zealand Rabbit Breeders. Together, with National Pet Stock Association of America founder, Charles S Gibson, Gilmore was responsible for the first New Zealand red rabbit Standard of Perfection which was adopted by the Association in 1916. From his Santa Barbara rabbitry, for many years Gilmore offered a correspondence course on raising rabbits and a 1917 hard-bound book titled “The New Zealand Red Rabbit and Rabbit Culture.”
