maybe so when they run into small spaces, they can detect whether or not their back ends will fit through?

bojay and jenniblu are probably on the righttrack. European rabbits do live in burrows and whiskersanywhere would be beneficial in finding your way around in alowlight/nolight situation, such as in a burrow.

Whiskers have nerves in them such as our fingers. It's how they feel their way around in the dark, much like a cat.

If their whiskers can fit through something then the rest of their body can. :)
