Well most rabbits live near a water source so that they can get a drink when they are thirsty and they will eat the bark off an tree and in the summer they will eat the roots of grass and other plants they also make a burrow to keep cool in the summer and hide from predators in the winter they hide in the burrow from predators and also to keep warm
A domestic rabbit may be able to survive in the wild for a short period of time. But generally no they cannot survive the wild. They do not have the instincts needed. They do not know how to escape predators or survive winters. A domestic rabbit would not last too long in the wild.

No. Just like domestic rabbits that are raised in human company, a wild rabbit that is raised outside of the wild will not know what to eat, where to look for food, or how to hide from predators, where to seek shelter and no warren to support it during the cold winter months.When pet rabbits are abandoned (which is illegal in many U.S. states, by the way), they rarely live more than 24 hours on their own, let alone an entire week. A wild rabbit may have wild instincts, but in an unfamiliar environment it knows nothing about it will be as helpless as any other abandoned rabbit.
Catching a hare or wild rabbit may lead to stress and injury for the animal. It is important to avoid capturing wild animals as they are best left undisturbed in their natural habitat. If you come across a hare or wild rabbit that appears injured or in distress, contact local animal authorities for assistance.
