===Behavior===
This species is a [[Nocturnality|nocturnal]] forest-dweller that reproduces once in late March–May and once in September–December, having one or two young each time.<ref name="iucn status 11 November 2021" /> During the day, the mother digs a hole in the ground, for her young to hide in. At night, she opens the entrance to the hole, while watching for [[predator]]s (such as venomous [[snake]]s), and then nurses her young, after which she closes the hole with soil and plant material by thumping on it with her front paws.<ref name=":3">{{Cite book|url=https://books.google.com/books?id=_kWcAwAAQBAJ|title=Rabbits, Pikas and Dwarf Rabbits|last=Dixon|first=Kristina|date=26 February 2012 |publisher=Lulu.com|isbn=9781105564963|language=en}}</ref> Amami rabbits sleep during the day in hidden locations, such as caves.<ref>{{Cite news|url=http://www.redorbit.com/reference/amami_rabbit/|title=Amami Rabbit - Redorbit|last=redOrbit|work=Redorbit|access-date=2017-06-19|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20170619104655/http://www.redorbit.com/reference/amami_rabbit/|archive-date=2017-06-19|language=en-US}}</ref> They are also noted for having a call similar to that of a [[pika]].<ref name="Yamada, F. 2005"/>
