All animals have two basic instincts, fight or flight, since a rabbit has little way of defending itself it usually chooses to flee, running for the safety of a convenient burrow. They can stay very still and unnoticed for a long period of time when frightened. Also, newborn and very young rabbits have very little scent and they are hard for predators to find. Rabbits as a species, have a high reproductive rate to offset the high mortality rate.

The fur on most animals helps it stay warm, blend in, and is water proof so the animal can swim without getting cold. Take the Polar Bear for example their fur has 2 layers a layer of short clear fur over the Polar Bears thick black skin and another layer of ling water proof clear fur over the shorter layer of fur and the black skin. The black skin absorbs more heat that pale skin and the 2 layers of fur help hold the heat in and make the bear water proof for when it's swimming. The fur is clear so hat sun light can pass through the the skin , but the light passing through makes the fur look white.
