The decision was based on a variety of factors including recommendations from the California Department of Food & Agriculture, Animal Health Branch and the American Rabbit Breeders Association. Fair officials said they are confident that these Federal, State and local government agencies can fully contain and eradicate RHDV2 soon so that the Rabbit Show can be rescheduled for a later date. “We know this decision is disappointing for our exhibitors and Fair guests; however, it is in the best interest of the community and the California rabbit industry,” added Colleen Bojorquez, Interim CEO.
