Domestic rabbits are directly descended from wild rabbits, and because of this, they have specific feeding requirements due to the way their body digests foods. Rabbits need to eat primarily grass to stay healthy. If you feed a rabbit incorrectly, it can cause a serious medical condition called gastrointestinal GI stasis, where the gut basically stops functioning. Proper feeding helps to prevent this problem from occurring.
