Chinchilla become very aggressive to Rabbit (Advice)

I have been looking after my friends pets while they have been over seas. The rabbit and chinchilla have been absolutely amazing, with no history of fighting other than the odd rustle here and there.

However...

Just last night my girlfriend awoke to the sound of fighting, and when I came out the rabbits ears were bleeding, and lots of fur had been pulled out of the rabbits neck and head area. No major injury as far as I’m aware and he is booked in for a vet visit. They have since been separated.

I have spoken to my friend and he is very surprised as they have lived together for a very long time and haven’t experienced anything like this before.

The only thing that really stands out was the rabbit was nuetered about a month ago

Any ideas what may have caused this sudden aggression from the chinchilla? We are all quite shocked as it was so sudden and aggressive.

Thank you
