Stage Frozen
Buckthorn is a rabbit who came to the Watership Down Warren from the Sandleford Warren. He is a strong rabbit who was going to join the Sandleford Owsla, when he reached full weight.
Personality
He is described as a tough, sturdy rabbit with a quiet and easygoing nature. Like Silver, he is steadfast and dependable in a crisis.

Biography
He was injured by a rat while the group was resting in a barn following the ordeal in the Warren of Snares. Buckthorn, along with Holly, Strawberry, and Silver, went to Efrafa to ask if they could have a few does join their warren; he came back injured from a blow across the face. Following the Battle of Watership Down, he later joined the Watership Down Owsla.

Along with Acorn and Speedwell, Buckthorn has not appeared in any of the adaptations of Watership Down.

About Kyootie Eggs

The smell, texture, and even taste of Kyootie eggshells are practically indistinguishable from those chalky heart-shaped Valentine candies. These eggs have yet to be found with romantic phrases written on them, however.

About the Kyootie Creature

Kyooties are small, endearing creatures that strive to help blossom forth Arkian relationships. They self-assign themselves to the lonely or lovesick, but, rather than relying purely on magic, Kyooties will act as a compassionate mentor. The success or failure of a relationship is ultimately determined by the mentee.

Arkian schoolchildren are sometimes teased by their peers about being influenced by Kyooties if they are ever seen playing amongst the opposite sex.
