The Killer Rabbit in Minecraft is hostile to all players it encounters, including tamed dogs and wolves. Keep reading to figure out how to avoid these evil creatures!

What is the Killer Rabbit in Minecraft?

Killer Rabbits may look cute, but they can be incredibly deadly! Killer Rabbits are completely white and their eyes are blood red and horizontal, instead of vertical, like normal rabbits. It is worthy to note that Killer Rabbits cannot exist in Minecraft Bedrock edition, and can only ever exist in Minecraft Java Edition.

Thankfully, Killer Rabbits are not naturally spawning in Minecraft. In fact, Killer Rabbits don’t even have their own spawn egg, so they can’t be spawned even if the player is in creative mode. There are only two ways to get a Killer Rabbit in Minecraft; you can use commands to spawn one in, or breed pre-existing Killer Rabbits with normal rabbits for a chance to get a Killer Rabbit baby.
