First Answer: A wild rabbit gets its food from digging in the ground and it eats roots, vegetable leaves, and a big majority of its diet is what people leave behind in park, etc. As for pet rabbits they eat timmothy hay...pellets are not good for a rabbits digestive system.....it will cause diharia. Also give them some vegetables and fruit such as strawberries parsley carrot TOPS and brussels sprouts. Pet rabbits get their food from you!

A different answer (disagreement): Wild rabbits get their food by foraging and grazing. The majority of a wild rabbit's natural diet is grass and leaves; they also eat some vegetables, fruits, and grains. Pet rabbits eat hay, pellets, and certain fresh vegetables and fruits (see the related question below for details).

The kind of food that people leave behind in parks is very unhealthy for rabbits. Like meat scraps: but rabbits are herbivores (vegan). And bread scraps, and apple cores: but fruit and grains should be very small parts of a rabbit's diet.

Wild rabbits don't normally live amongst humans like squirrels and raccoons do. If a park has lots of rabbits, they're probably abandoned pet rabbits - feral, not wild. They do not live a good life and they should be rescued by professionals.

Pellets are perfectly healthy for rabbits but they should be high-quality (there are many bad pellets on the market), and they should be limited. Pellets don't lead to diarrhoea, but too many can lead to cecal dysbiois (which kind of looks like diarrhoea), also obesity, GI stasis, and other health problems.

Can rabbits eat out of date red grapes?

Rabbits can't eat any "out of date" foods. Anything you wouldn't eat, don't give the rabbit. (Of course, some foods you'd never eat, like carrot tops; but you can still tell if it's fresh or not in the same way you can tell if your food is fresh or not.) Don't give any foods to your rabbit that are rotten, spoiled, moldy, etc.
