Best Answer

Wild Rabbits

Wild rabbits don't usually live longer than 2 years. This is because they have predators such as coyotes and snakes.

Pet Rabbits

Rabbits live 8-10 years, and can live even longer (although older than 13 is rare). Generally speaking, large breeds live shorter lives than dwarf breeds.

Different people say different things because, as we learn more about rabbits and take better care of them, their average lifespan is rising. Many people don't take good care of their rabbits, so they don't live long, but that doesn't mean that's the rabbit's lifespan.

Other Answers

Usually rabbits live to be 7-9 years of age, but dwarf breeds can live to be 12 years old.

It depends. If you keep it healthy it will live long. If you have a bunny I suggest you go and research on the internet how to keep it healthy. Some of them are not accurate so you should double check other sites.

10years+ (with proper care)

Some average house rabbits live 5-7 years. However, if you love, clean, and help your rabbit with your best efforts, it can live between the ages 7-12 years of age!
A pet rabbit's life span is 8-12 years if cared for properly.

It depends, if a rabbit is looked after well and it is vaccinate every year then it can expect to live up about 12. But the average age is between 5 - 7 years. However a lucky one could live longer.

Pet rabbits live between 8-10 years, although they can live up to 13, even 14 years. A rabbit dying at 5 years is dying too young.

They live to up to about 15 years, and my rabbit, called Charlie, is a joy to own! Rabbits are really worth keeping if they are trained well. Emma

Rabbits live roughly 9 years alone but can live up to 11 years in pairs or groups. Get females spayed after 3 or so years, breeding that late can be fatal to doe's & their kittens.
