What kind of food does wild rabbit eat?

Answer 1

They eat vegetables, hay, and grass.

They eat fresh grass, hay and vegetables not so much vegetables but fruits which have fallen from trees. they do not simply eat any hay they will only eat the quality hay high in fiber. they also eat their own faces to ensure they get all of the goodness-out of their food, they will eat the same dropping up to five times!

I've been told by a Vet that rabbits have a different digestive systems, bread will clog their stomachs, however {Patches) steals bread. She gets a variety of food such as bok choy, rabbit pellets, carrots, sweet/corn, celery, carrot leaves, she does like apple every now and then. grass, dock leaves and dandelion, along with puha and watercress. She drinks water alot when she is eating just pellets, we will give her fancy lettuce if we are having salad, she eats the cats food so we have started feeding them when we lock her in our bedroom and then remove their remaining food out of her reach. I let my daughter kill her fleas if she gets them and Patches doesn't mind, but if you no of a treatment that is safe let us know.

Answer 2

Wild rabbits tend to eat things like grass, dandilions, clover, flowers and leaves. It really does depend on the area though. But since grass (long or short) is one of the most plentiful food sources, it is sometimes one of the main parts of their diet.
