Snake populations are generally decreasing due to habitat loss, loss of prey, and killing by humans. For specific species in the USA, check with your state fish and wildlife agency, or with the US Fish and Wildlife Service. Countries other than the US often have conservation programs, research studies, and educational efforts directed toward the protection and conservation of snakes.

If the population of rabbits increase will the population of snakes increase?

Nature is like a system in equilibrium. If a change in any component nature, quality or quantity is imposed on it, it will try to suppress that change and try to nullify it. So if the number of rabbits increase that change will be nullified by many factors other than predators. Diseases, shortage of food etc. can happen. Also, the increase in the number of rabbits will provide a good habitat for the snakes and thereby help in more breeding. But this will happen only up to a particular limit after which there will be no more change.
