“…A microbiological analysis revealed that the diets had a significant effect on the growth and activity of various bacterial species in the intestinal ecosystem, and that lactic acid bacteria contributed to restoring intestinal microbial balance. Aribi et al (2010) determined the effects of casein and an adaptedmilk formula on the proliferation of lymphocytes, mid-cells and granulocytes and on circulating lipids in rabbits. The cited authors found that casein and the adapted-milk formula enhanced the activity of phagocytes, eosinophils and basophils, and inhibited lymphocyte proliferation.…”

Rabbits are classified as obligate herbivores. However, under natural conditions, some members of the family Leporidae incorporate animal products into their diets. Therefore, it seems biologically justified to supplement the diets of farmed rabbits with feeds of animal origin as sources of protein, fat and minerals. The aim of this review was to describe, from a historical perspective, the use of various feeds of animal origin in rabbit nutrition. The applicability of by-products from mammal, poultry, fish and invertebrate processing for rabbit feeding was evaluated, including the future prospects for their use. A review of the available literature revealed that various animal-based feeds can be valuable protein sources in rabbit diets, but their inclusion levels should not exceed 5-10%. Studies investigating their efficacy have been conducted since the 1970s. In some regions of the world, the use of animal-derived protein in livestock feeds was prohibited due to the risk of spreading bovine spongiform encephalopathy (BSE). However, the interest in animal by-products as protein sources in livestock diets is likely to increase since the above ban has been lifted.
