During the harsh winter, wildlife population are affected. And one of the affected animals are the rabbits. Rabbits are affected because of their source of food like raspberries, blackberry plants and such are or will be covered by the snow. And that will cause them starvation. But starvation is not the only thing that will affect or cause decrease of their population but also their predators can also hunt them easily since the snow will decrease their mobility to escape, and they will be hunted.
