toolebox 1,529 Posted December 27, 2022 Report Share Posted December 27, 2022 Found this on the net ,might be useful. Coccidiosis is a common and worldwide sporozoan disease of rabbits caused by the protozoan parasite Eimeria ep. Up to 25 species of coccidian have been observed in rabbits, with two main forms seen, hepatic and intestinal. Quote Link to post

Guss33 375 Posted December 28, 2022 Author Report Share Posted December 28, 2022 From my understanding if anything effects the liver it will effect the meat as the liver cleanse out the goodness of the rest of the rabbit. If the liver is not looking good then it is not in my opinion good for human consumption. Quote Link to post
Netmaker 909 Posted December 28, 2022 Report Share Posted December 28, 2022 was a slaughterman 37yr and seen fluke in sheep many times and was past many times by the meat inspector fit for human consumption i have ate many a rabbit which has had liver fluke to no ill effect 1 Quote Link to post
