Japanese beetles (Popillia japonica), also known as the chafer beetle, rose chafer and garden chafer; aphids (Macrosiphum rosae), also known as plant lice; thrips (Anaphothrips obscurus or Frankliniella tritici), also called grass thrips or oat bugs, and the rose leaf hopper are all insects that can do various levels of damage to a rose bush.
A rabbit nibbled the ends of my Champlain Explorer rose too. They will eat roses if they can get them.
