Eating rabbit droppings

I would be concerned about him picking up parasites. I don't know much about rabbits or if and what parasites they might carry, but worms are usually spread through consuming an infected animal's feces.
I think with wild rabbit you only have to worry about tapeworm, and that is from eating the flesh of the rabbit. Although, they could carry coccidian in their droppings, that shouldn't affect a healthy dog, only young dogs or ones with a compromised immune system.
