I found this:
 
 
What about the rabbits? Have  you noticed the barren "moonscape" along Pickett
’s Lane, the stretch with no  grasses or wildflowers in sight? This is an 
example of how destructive the  European rabbit can be.

 
A nonnative species brought to the island in the late 1800s, they are  
destroying the prairie by digging extensive burrow systems. Fencing constructed  in 
recent years prevents them from entering certain areas targeted for  
restoration, and additional ways to control them are currently under  discussion.
