What percentage of the rabbit is usable for meat?

  1. Approximately 75%

  2. About 50%

  3. Around 93%

  4. Nearly 100%

The correct answer is: Around 93%

Rabbits have long been a source of meat for humans due to their small size and high reproduction rate. When it comes to using rabbits for meat, approximately 50-75% of the animal is considered edible. This includes the muscle meat, organs, and even parts like the heart and lungs. While this may seem like a large percentage, it is still less than the 93% of the rabbit that is usable for meat if we include the bones and other parts that can be used for stock or broth. Therefore, the correct answer is option C. The other options are incorrect because they are either too low or too high of a percentage to accurately represent the amount of usable meat from a rabbit.
