What foods do wild rabbits eat? Wild bunnies prefer tender young green plants and high-protein vegetation over fibrous dry growth. They usually eat twice a day: morning and night. Wild rabbits in captivity need grass hay, pellets and leafy greens such as collard greens, watercress, Swiss chard, broccoli and kale. Wild bunnies, particularly very young ones, should never be removed from their nests, as this drastically shortens their chance of survival.
1 Wild baby bunnies do not have a scent and won't attract predators except by sight or sound. 2  The rabbit doe (mother) will be out of the nest to eat and draw attention away from her new brood most of the time.  Do not give a baby rabbit cow's milk! Instead, give them KMR (Kitten Replacer Milk from the pet store or goat's milk) and please do not over feed. If they are old enough, grass, alfalfa or timothy hay and water is the best feed for them. No carrots! or other vegetables (especially fruit).
