Dental and skeletal findings of 140 wild rabbits (Oryctolagus cuniculus) in Finland 2010–2015
Initial signs of dental disease were identified in a Finnish wild rabbit population, although the prevalence was lower than in previously investigated pet rabbits. More advanced stages of dental disease or vertebral column ankylosing malformations were not identified. Prevalence of vertebral column deformities was low.
