thats a lot of rabbits , I honestly think you would need to stop the rabbits by digging in a rabbit fence........................ your garden will be stripped of plants they eat anything as np says and they will burrow in the garden as well

I would second Mc answer. I would personally try to fence them off. What about putting up some chicken wire with posts? That should not be too expensive and you will still have your view.

chicken wire is good but you would need to dig it in at the bottom at an angle towards the outside , so that when the rabbit try to burrow under they are actually on the fence and cant burrow under, dont do this and the fence wont stop em.
