Fiver is the smallest rabbit of the lot, who has visions about what is about to happen.  He foreseen the destruction of Sandleford Warren, the wires at Shining Wire Warren and foretold of Watership Down.  He was the one that gave Hazel the idea of the Farm Dog near the end of the film when he had a vision of the dog in the wood.  He was played by Richard Briers.
