List of Watership Down Characters - Hutch Rabbits

Hutch Rabbits

  • Clover: A strong and active Angora doe, who mates with Hawkbit and provides the Watership Down warren with its second known litter. In the movie, Clover and the hutch rabbits are all recaptured soon after their escape and are never seen again. In the TV series, she is the only rabbit to escape from the farm.
  • Boxwood: A "black and white Himalayan" buck, and Haystack's mate.
  • Haystack: A Himalayan doe who is Boxwood's mate.
  • Laurel: A "short-haired black Angora" buck. He is freed by the Watership rabbits along with the other hutch rabbits, but is recaptured soon after.

Note: normally, Angora rabbits never are short haired. It seems that no one knows who mated with who but the book suggests that it was Clover and Holly, Bigwig and Thethuthinnang, Hazel and Hyzenthlay and Fiver and Vilthuril.

Famous quotes containing the word rabbits:

    All beaded with dew
    dawn grass runway
    Open-eyed rabbits hang
    dangle, loose feet in tall grass
    From alder snares.
    Gary Snyder (b. 1930)
