In this study, it was aimed to conduct a morphometric analysis of the mandible of the New Zealand Rabbit in terms of gender factor. In the study, the mandibles of the 20 animals (10 female and 10 male) New Zealand Rabbit were used. 10 measurements were received from each mandible. In the study, when the average length value of the mandible (length between infradentale to gonion caudale) was 66.62 mm in the males, it was determined that this measurement was 66.15 in the females. The average height value of the mandible (length between gonion ventrale to the end point of the processus condylare) was settled as 44.87 in the males, 44.82 mm in the females. Although all of the measurements were higher in the males, it was determined that the difference among the sexes was not statistically significant (P>0.05). In the study, a result of made correlation analysis, when it was confirmed that there was strong negative correlation among the length between gonion ventrale to the end point of processus condylare with the length between the molar teeth in the male, it was determined that there was strong positive and statistically meaningful correlation among the same measurements of the females. As a result, it has been concluded that the mandible morphometry would not present determinative outcomes in the sex distinction of the New Zealand Rabbit, because the difference between the sexes was not significant in the morphometric analysis of the mandible.
