  I rescued my rhinelander named oliver 8 months ago. I have noticed lately when i put himin his cage at night he becomes aggressive. He will grawl and last night he lunged at both my legs and bit me. I wasnt bleeding. I am wondering how to correct this behavior?

  I see that you had another thread from a few months ago about aggression and that you mentioned Oliver was neutered in that thread. I haven’t had any personal experience with aggressive rabbits, although there have been some that came into the sanctuary where I volunteer. They lost their aggression after time, but it seems that Oliver has not. There are several articles on aggression on the HRS site. You may have already seen them, but if not, maybe some will be helpful. The one I have read before was http://rabbit.org/faq-aggression/. The page that shows all the articles is
  http://rabbit.org/category/behavior/aggression/.

  Thank you i did read the articles and they were helpful. He normally does it at night when i am trying to put him in for the night. I am going to think of a different approach.
