The most serious threats to the volcano rabbit are habitat degradation and target shooting. A variety of factors appear to be responsible for the continued degradation of the rabbit's forest/zacaton habitat. These include forest fires, overgrazing by cattle and sheep, encroachment by development and agriculture, over-exploitation of timber and cutting of zacaton grasses for thatch and brush manufacture.
