Yes. A small enough rabbit CAN jump right through the mesh in a standard sized yard fence. I know this, because last night I had the little guy (... no not a baby) cornered and poof - he jumped right through the fence and bounded off into the brush. I was stunned for a minute - he sure didn't LOOK like he would have fit through there - but sure enough, he most certainly did. So, not seeing any rabbit holes? No tunnels under your fence? (mine is a 5' chain link) He's probably just jumping right through it. Obviously, there comes a point that a larger rabbit will not get through, but this 3-5 pound rabbit did it without even breaking stride, and a 3-5 pound rabbit is plenty big to tear up your garden. I'm moving my operation to level 2...trapping. If trapping doesn't work, I'll break out my air rifle. Good luck!

∙ 13y agoA fox could get through is the wire around the hutch is week. You could also get foxes if the garden/yard you keep the rabbit in has no wall or fence. I f you live in a busy area then you will probably not get foxes. I live in an area with lots of foxes and they have come and snooped around my rabbit Hutch but because i had a strong wire my rabbit was safe.

Is it possible for a fox to breed with a rabbit?
It probably can't actually get into the hutch unless there is a hole/gap in the wire front or something, or if the catch on the door is loose. However the fox doesn't actually need to get into the hutch to harm the rabbit, just the fact that the rabbit can see or smell (or even hear) the fox could cause it to become frightened or shocked. Rabbits can actually die from fright so be very careful to make sure the hutch is in an area where a fox can't access it. If you really care about keeping the rabbit from harm you could consider keeping your rabbit indoors, if not as a permanent "house rabbit" then you could at least keep it inside overnight.
