Why Would A Mother Rabbit Kill Her Babies?

Rabbits would eat her kits for a variety of reasons like when the kits are sick, stressed rabbit, not enough milk, mistaken for the placenta, kits already dead, or when the rabbit is too young to be a mother.

Rabbits would not willingly eat meat without reason because they are herbivores. What’s happening is just nature telling the rabbit to survive and procreate at all cost even if it means eating her own.
