Watership Down rabbits

* Hazel – Fiver's older brother; he leads the rabbits from Sandleford and eventually becomes Chief Rabbit. He is shot and almost dies, but is saved by his brother Fiver. At the Watership Down warren, he mates with Hyzenthlay from Efrafa, and the two become co-Chief Rabbit. At the end of the novel, he dies of old age and is taken away by El-ahrairah to join his Owsla.

* Bigwig – A large ex-Owsla officer. His name is Lapine is Thlayli, which means "Fur-head" and refers to the shock of fur on the back of his head. Resilient and powerful, he survives both a snare and an attack by General Woundwort, and infiltrates Efrafa to rescue Hyzenthlay and Blackavar, among others.

* Fiver – A small, runt rabbit; his Lapine name is Hrair-roo, which means "Little-five" or "Little-thousand" (rabbits are stated to be capable of counting only up to four, so there are no specific numerical fixes beyond four). He is a seer, and his visions of the destruction of the Sandleford warren led him to leave, along with his brother Hazel and several other rabbits. He saves Hazel's life when he is shot, and inspires Hazel to set up the release of the Nuthanger Farm dog, which saves the Watership Down warren.

* Blackberry – A clever buck rabbit with characteristically black-tipped ears. He is the often capable of understanding concepts that the other rabbits find incomprehensible; he realises that wood floats, and the rabbits use this twice to traverse on water. In the television series, Blackberry was made a doe and falls in love with Campion.

* Dandelion – A buck rabbit, notable for his storytelling ability and speed; he is instrumental in luring the Nuthanger Farm dog up the hill to scatter the Efrafans near the end of the book. He is voice acted by Richard O'Callaghan in the film and Phill Jupitus in the television series.

* Pipkin - A young and rather timid buck rabbit, who constantly looks to Hazel for guidance.

* Silver - A large rabbit with grey fur (hence his name) and the Threarah's nephew. He was a member of the Sandleford Owsla but decided to desert along with Hazel's band. His stoid reliability have served Hazel at those times when Bigwig's hot-headedness is more a hindrance than help.

* Speedwell, Acorn, Hawkbit, and Buckthorn - Other fugitives from the Sandleford Warren.

Umm, Fluffy - Sounds cute
