Do they have a choice, get wet or get eaten.

i think wind more then rain will stop rabbits bolting ie wind direction

rain is fine mate, its just upt o you wanting to get wet but as long as the wind isnt strong, you should be fine.

It's dry in the burrows mate ,i reckon the wind bothers bolting rabbits more than the rain

its dry underground, else the rabbits wouldnt be in there. But even if they werent, and they were on the move the rain shouldnt bother em.
