The Flemish Giant is a very old and popular breed of domestic rabbit, most famous for its large size compared to other rabbits. The Flemish Giant has a minimum weight of 5 kg, and can live for up to five years or more, with many living into their late teens.The Flemish Giant is a very old breed from the Flemish region, and was already bred in the 16th century around the city of Ghent, Belgium. It descended from a number of meat and fur breeds, possibly including the Steenkonijn (Stone Rabbit - referring to the old Belgian weight size of one 'stone' or 3,5 kg) and the European "patagonian" breed (now extinct). This 'Patagonian' rabbit was a large landrace breed that was once bred in Belgium and France. It has nothing to do with the Patagonian rabbit of Argentina (Sylvilagus brasiliensis) which weighs less than two pounds (about 1 kg), nor the Patagonian hare (Dolichotis patagonum), which is a variety of rodent (classified as a Cavy) and thus cannot interbreed with domesticated rabbits.
