This jerk learned he can make the 2 ft leap into my raised beds and eat my plants. Because he’s a jerk. Any recommendations on how to keep him out? We have a ton of wild rabbits around us so while this wasn’t a problem last year I just know he’s going to go tell his little rabbit friends where they can get snacks that I’m trying really hard to grow.
Also, please don’t judge the weeds. We haven’t been able to attack the yard for the last few weeks and it’s been way too wet to get the mower out without getting stuck. You can see said mower stuck in the background.

I’ve battled with bunnies before.
Some fencing would help the most (either a regular fence or additional small border fencing in the beds themselves).
I’ve used deterrants with mixed results, like Liquid Fence (granular). You need to reapply every so often, and after heavy rain.
I also got a dog (but they like to dig in the garden too, haha).
They make cute pets for kids
I’m making these for my garden beds this year due to the rabbits we have. The fencing is removable so you can still get into the garden to work in it.

It’s turning out to be a bit more of a project than I originally expected but it’s coming together! Good luck
