Abstract
An apparatus and method for rearing neonatal rabbits in hypoxia is described. This technique relies on the use of hypoxia chambers that need to be serviced once a day for approximately 1 h. By use of the apparatus and procedures outlined, rabbits that exhibit standard clinical signs of hypoxemia (cyanosis and elevated hematocrit) can be reliably reared and maintained for long periods of time.
