The rabbits caused extensive damage to all vegetation, and the lack of plants increased soil erosion. Why were the rabbits so successful? 

the rabbits competed with local herbivores for food
the rabbits did not have natural predators
erosion of soil benefited the rabbits
diseases helped decrease rabbit populations
