A pet is domesticated and are raised to live with humans. However, a wild fox isn't accustomed to living with people and also live by their instincts. Assuming that you are raising a fox, I suppose the difference would be if it could be train or if it could be kept inside. However, if you picked it up from the wilderness, then yeah, it's a wild fox. Correct me if I'm wrong dear.

The difference is that they're a different species (unless you live somehwere the European Rabbit is the wild rabbit, like the UK, or the Mediterranean). They're adapted to different habitats, which means they eat different food, have different personalities, and live different lifestyles from each other.

First answer: wild rabbits are lest likly to live as a housewholed rabbit because it can live with all the change. a pet rabbit may ahve a better chance changing to wild because there's more freedom.

More information: There are many different species of wild rabbits all over the world. Each species of rabbit is adapted to its native habitat, which affects how it lives, what kind of weather it can tolerate, and what it eats.

Pet rabbits were all bred from a single species: the European Rabbit, which is native to the western Mediterranean region.

Sometimes, people think that because they see wild rabbits outside in the cold of winter or the heat of summer, their pet rabbits can live outside during those times, too. This is not true: pet rabbits are adapted to a mild climate and can't tolerate very hot or very cold weather.

Also, just because wild rabbits live nearby doesn't mean it's okay to "release" your pet rabbit into the wild. Wild rabbits are adapted to where they live, which means they know how to find food and shelter. Pet rabbits are not adapted to these areas, so if they escape or you abandon them, they won't know how to find food or shelter.

There are both wild and pet rabbits. It is not a good idea to catch a wild rabbit and try to make a pet of it, because their habits are somewhat different from domesticated (pet) rabbits, and they can be very nervous and may even die of fright if caught. Pet rabbits can be bought at pet stores or from breeders.
