Why do rabbit keep turning their ears?

Rabbits are lagomorphs which means they have large back feet, gnawing teeth, and large ears. Since they have large ears, they can hear all the sounds around them. Whenever a rabbit hears a sound, his or her ears turn in that direction. It's their instinct. When all rabbits were wild, they depended on their sound catching ears! So coyotes or another predator could be detected before the coyote has some fast food!

Why do rabbits keep turning their big sound-collecting ears?

They are listening all around. The animal is listening to the sounds around itself and other rabbits around the warren. The animals need to keep moving their ears around as there are so many noises around them, they are a prey animal and so always have to keep an ear out for the predators which may be aproaching them from any angle. This constant moving of the ears enables the animals to listen for any sound which may become a threat to itself or the other rabbits in its warren (as rabbits tend to be social creatures and graze together), if the animals did not use their excellent hearing all the time the animal would not live very long.
