Giant Angora

Highland WoolMarket price about 190 carrots

The biggest of the angoras, always ruby-eyed white. Spins enough wool for a jumper a season, and knows it.

The real Giant Angora

The real breed comes from the United States. Developed in the United States in the 1980s as the largest of the angoras, bred for the amount of wool it gives.

What the standard asks for

  • not a dwarf
  • upright ears
  • an angora coat (long wool)
  • a coat in the white family
  • ruby eyes
  • size at least 76 on the game's 0 to 100 scale

A rabbit that meets every point counts as a Giant Angora; among breeds it meets, the game counts it as the one whose standard it meets on the most points.

What the judge looks at

Once a rabbit meets the standard, the judge scores how close it is to the breed's ideal. Every point away costs it.

  • size: 88 on the game's 0 to 100 scale
  • ear droop: 0 on the game's 0 to 100 scale
  • ear length: 65 on the game's 0 to 100 scale
