the rabbits unfortunately get eaten by wolves, foxes, Badgers and any other mammal the is out and about.

Answer 2

It depends of the kind of rabbits that you have; but rabbits are like pets(dogs, cats,horses...) You can go to a Vet with your rabbits and he/she will give the rabbits the right shots to avoid diseases like, rabies and so on... and I know for a fact that if you want to avoid future pregancies ; they can be sterilized too. Also in some States they have clinics on Animal Shelters, where the rabbits can receive their shots and be sterilized. Example AWA in Voorhees , New Jersey where I worked long time ago and they have rabbits for adoption ; all with shots and sterile.

Answer 3

It can be very difficult to keep a rabbit safe outside. It's generally much easier to keep a rabbit safe inside, so more and more people are choosing to keep their bunnies indoors with them. See the related link and question below.

Answer 4

Pet rabbits rely on you to keep them safe. They need a strong, safe enclosure to protect them from the weather and predators, with a varied supply of food and plenty of exercise to keep them healthy.

Wild rabbits rely on their instincts, mother's training, and speed and good reflexes to keep them safe from predators, to know what to eat, and how to make a safe burrow to nest in.

Answer 5

In the wild, rabbits can run fast to get away and camouflage.

Pet rabbits need to be kept safe by their owners. Part of keeping a rabbit safe is by "rabbit-proofing." See the related questions and links below for more details.

Answer 6

To keep a bunny safe:

You must know if the area is safe, like if there is any dogs that aren't safe you must keep your bunny in a cage.

You have to learn about possible dangers and threats, and then keep them away from the rabbit.

Most people choose to keep their rabbit(s) in an enclosure, like a cage or pen, and then "bunny proof" an area outside the enclosure for supervised access (daily exercise, play time, socializing, cuddling, grooming, etc). Another option is to completely "bunny proof" an entire room in your home (or your whole home!), although this takes more attention because the rabbit will be in there alone, and rabbits can get themselves into trouble.

A happy, satisfied rabbit tends to be less destructive, and this is part of keeping a rabbit safe. If a rabbit has plenty of hay, and some toys and play structures that interest him, he's less likely to go looking for trouble.

Some dangers for rabbits include:

- Electrical wires/cords

- Poisonous plants

- Other animals

- Small children

- Bad weather (hot weather, cold weather, wet and rainy weather)

- Escape (pet rabbits can't survive on their own, like local wild rabbits can)

- Parasites, bugs

- Anything indigestible a rabbit might eat will probably make it sick -- rabbits have very sensitive digestion, but they sometimes try to eat all sorts of bad things, like carpets, clothing, upholstery, wood trim and panelling, furniture, rubber and soft plastic items (and furniture parts, like on the feet), human foods, really whatever it takes a mind to!

- Fumes, loud noises, chaos
