Rabbits raised for their fur lead miserable lives in cramped and overcrowded conditions, often suffer from injuries inflicted by their cage-mates, and many die early deaths from their injuries. Rabbits raised for fur is a fiercely debated topic between fur advocates and animal rights groups such as the Animal Liberation Front.
Do a video search for farms and you can see first hand the conditions that these condemned animals live in.

Killed
It takes 30-40 rabbits to make ONE coat. These animals are raises and killed inhumanly. They are often killed between 10-12 weeks old.
The wild rabbit agoutti coat is dominant.
If killed by humans, seals are used for their fur and sell fur coat in the black market. By other animals, seals are killed for food.
If you mean lose their fur then I can help you. Rabbit lose their fur when they moult. Moulting happens about twice a year and is when the old fur dies and falls out, but it is replaced with new fur. Rabbits have 2 types of coat: a thick one for winter, and a thinner one for summer. The winter coat is darker and the summer coat is lighter, because light colour reflect the heat so the rabbit won't get too hot.
Rabbits should never be given baths. Getting a rabbits coat completely wet will ruin its fur. Rabbits are much like cats in that they bathe themselves.
Sometimes but not always. Some people eat rabbit (feet) so they are killed for food. Hunters also might want to kill them for a hunting accomplishment, but most of the time, rabbits are not the main victim to be killed for fur. Mostly bears are killed for their fur (fur coats).

The snowshoe hare changes its fur to white in the winter, and back to brown (with a white underbelly in the summer. If it is an outdoor rabbit, it can get sunburn, if it's black, its fur will turn a brown color, it isn't really dangerous, but make sure they have shade, and the color will become normal again after she/he gets their winter coat
