	Rabbit - Encyclopedia, History, Geography and Biography
		They are sometimes affectionately known as bunnies, especially by children.
		There are seven different genera in the family classified as rabbits, including the European Rabbit (Oryctolagus cuniculus), cottontail rabbits (genus Sylvilagus; 13 species), and the Amami Rabbit (Pentalagus furnessi, an endangered species on Amami Oshima, Japan).
		There are many other species of rabbit, and these, along with cottontails, pikas and hares make up the Order Lagomorpha.

	Amami Rabbit - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The Amami Rabbit (Pentalagus furnessi), or Amami no Kuro Usagi (奄美の黒兔/アマミノクロウサギ), also known as the Ryukyu Rabbit, is a primitive dark-furred rabbit which is only found in Amami Oshima and Toku-no-Shima, two small islands between southern Kyushu and Okinawa in Kagoshima Prefecture (but actually closer to Okinawa) in Japan.
		Often called a living fossil, the Amami Rabbit is a living remnant of ancient rabbits that once lived on the Asian mainland, where they died out, remaining only on the two small islands where they survive today.

		The Iriomote Islands contain the world's only habitat for the rare and endangered Iriomote cat (Felis iriomotensis) - a brown, spotted cat discovered in 1964, that is slightly bigger than the average housecat, and hunts for small mammals, birds, lizards, and insects from their perches in the trees.
		Other species of interest include the Amami rabbit (Pentalagus furnessi), Okinawan or Pyers' woodpecker (Sapheopipo noguchii), and the Okinawa rail (Rallus okinawae) - nearly flightless birds, discovered in 1981.
		Developments such as dam construction, logging, introduced species, and expansion of agriculture threaten remaining natural habitats.
