My dogs LOVE these. There are also recipes for rabbit ears, such as deep-fried rabbit ears served with an apricot ginger chutney sauce. The ears of the rabbit can be dehydrated and used for dogs treats. It is said that the size of every animals brain is enough to tan that animal’s pelt. The brains can also be used for brain tanning the pelt. In Europe rabbits are sold with the head on, this is cooked or used for soup stock. The head can be crushed and fed to the chickens, the blood, bones, and meat is considered good for the laying hen, and blood mixed in the mash can be used for the same purpose. Dog owners feeding their pets a raw food diet say their dogs love the heads and I have also seen them fed to pigs. For example Rabbit Head Pasta and Spicy Sichuan Rabbit Head, are just a few, but heads are traditionally used in stews and stocks. The rabbit head and brains are eaten in many countrys, and there are many recipes using both. Here are the uses I have found for The Nose To Tail for the rabbit.

#TANNING RABBIT HIDES EASY HOW TO#
I have found that learning how to butcher and use all the parts of a rabbit is a good way to start. It is sometimes a challenge to figure out what to do with a whole animal and using all its parts. It’s not so much about frugality but that I feel a need to not waste anything and respecting the animal we raise and eat. I am a big fan of using every part of an animal.
