. . . I used some round-up to eliminate some grass. The next day I found a wild rabbit near death in my yard. The rabbit died shortly after I found it and I have always believed it was because the rabbit ate that grass and nearby vegetation which was also sprayed. . .

. . .They say the stuff is safe, but I have never trusted it. About
20 years ago we had some rabbits in two wood floored pens in an old barn.
We kept a couple or 3 does and raised several litters each per year, plus a
buck. One day I found a mature doe and a young rabbit with her dead,
rabbits that had been perfectly healthy the day before. As I looked for
clues, I noted that something had splashed on the wooden floor from above.
I climbed up into the loft and found a container of Roundup had fallen off a
beam and broken when it hit the floor of the loft. . .
