The content of lead, cadmium and nickel have been measured in muscles, livers and kidneys of New Zealand White (NZW) and New Zealand Red (NZR) rabbits raised in small-scale family farms in Silesia, heavy industry region of Poland. As a results of studies it was found, that kidneys are the most liable organ for bioaccumulation of each heavy metal, but especially of cadmium. The accumulation of each heavy metal in muscles was low or very low. In all tissues nickel accumulated in least of all. The results showed, that New Zealand White breed seems to be more resistant for bioaccumulation of heavy metals
