Just came across this article that states the hybrid is a bit of a myth after studies showed almost all to be authentic Spanish wild rabbits!
“After studying over 70 populations throughout the peninsula and collecting samples from more than 1,700 rabbits, ‘only two turned out to be hybrids with domestic rabbits.’ While farming associations speak of a ‘hybrid rabbit plague,’ experts claim that they are wild rabbits.”
Después de estudiar a más de 70 poblaciones por toda la península, recogiendo muestras de más de 1.700 conejos, “solamente dos salieron que eran híbridos con doméstico”
Mientras las asociaciones agrarias hablan de “plaga de conejos híbridos”, expertos aseguran que son conejos de monte
