Wild animals should not be kept as pets.
Domestic animals sometimes turn "feral" or they become difficult to manage when they haven't been properly socialized and/or when they aren't being cared for properly. If your rabbit is like this, you will have to spend time socializing your rabbit, and will have to ensure your rabbit's habitat is suitable (it should be specially designed to help make your rabbit feel secure, and to provide entertainment for your rabbit). Bored, lonely, frightened, anxious, and insecure rabbits will become aggressive and/or timid.
