Woolly Rabbits
Woolly rabbits1 are among the most important livestock kept by the Útels of Ela'k Forest in western Dragonía, as they are a source of meat, skins and, more importantly, Rabbit Wool, the main material used to make traditional Útel and -to lesser extent- Ameder clothing. They are also commonly kept as pets.
Cuniculture among Útels is the main responsibility of zaþin-naa, the caste of rabbit- and rodent farmers, while tanla-naa, the tailors' caste, is responsible for weaving and dyeing the rabbit wool into the colourful cloaks worn by members of different castes and all but the most basic clothing.
