The bug
Rabbits willingly take the fall damage from a three-high block space when attempting to escape. Therefore trying to have a farm for them is difficult because they all eventually kill themselves.
Reproduction steps
Place blocks with a 3 high gaps from the ground
Spawn rabbits on the top of these blocks
Stay close to them and switch to survival mode
❌ In their movement to escape from you, the rabbits will jump through the gap and damage themselves.

Is this still an issue in the most recent versions (currently that is 1.10.2, or 16w42a) of Minecraft? If so, please update the affected versions and help us keeping this ticket updated from time to time.
This is still an issue in the current versions of Minecraft. Both 1.10.2 as well as 16w42a, thank you so much for your reply!
I've seen this with other mobs too, such as zombies, creepers, cows, etc. This may be a universal glitch across multiple mobs, but only in 1.21.1+ have I seen this.
Confirmed.
