Scabious is Clover and Holly's son. He seems to be friends with Fiver's son, Threar, and later joins the Owsla.

History[]

Watership Down[]

Scabious is seen in the end of the book, training with his two unnamed brothers and Bigwig. Bigwig was pretending to be a cat, but Scabious didn't know what a cat looked like, and he wasn't sure what to do.

Tales from Watership Down[]

Scabious is seen in the tale, The Rabbit's Ghost Story. He is convinced that he has seen a ghost, but Blackavar and Threar tells him that it was probably just a hare. This sighting makes Coltsfoot begin to tell his story.
