the claim

Wild rabbits naturally eat carrots as a major part of their diet.

the verdict
CONTESTED PARTIAL
Recorded sources
1 source for · 2 against

Counts group repeated records of the same source within each side. They do not measure evidence strength or source independence.

Is it true that wild rabbits naturally eat carrots as a major part of their diet?

Partly. One popular source says rabbits eat carrots, while a field study indicates carrots were accepted mainly as a moist bait rather than a natural staple, and a veterinary study contrasts wild lagomorph diets with carrot-heavy pet diets. No source directly measures carrots as a major part of wild rabbits' natural diet.
