Question

Uroliths are more common in rabbits with _____.
A)excessive exercise
B)high-protein diets
C)vitamin deficiencies
D)protein deficiencies

Accepted Answer

Uroliths, also known as bladder stones, are more common in rabbits that are fed high-protein diets. This is because high levels of protein can cause an increase in calcium and other minerals in the urine, which can then crystallize and form stones in the bladder. Excessive exercise or vitamin/protein deficiencies are not known to be direct causes of uroliths in rabbits.
