Why are rabbits more common than foxes?
Rabbits provide a food source for foxes. It is necessary for a species near the bottom of the food chain to be more numerous in order to ensure an ample supply of food. If the rabbit population starts to fall, there won't be enough for foxes to eat, so the foxes will begin to die of starvation. The population size of the foxes is directly limited by the availability of food: the population size of the rabbits.
Also, (This is a diffrent person) they are food for LOTS of things, not just foxes. They are also food to hawks, eagles, bears, wolfs, cyots, snakes, ospre, and many more. Oh yeah, if you killed all the rabbits in the area, all these thing will leave, or die.
