The factor that limits the carrying capacity of a rabbit colony’s ecosystem is **increase in predators**.
While more food, mates, and space can potentially support a larger population, an increase in predators would reduce the rabbit population, thereby limiting the ecosystem's carrying capacity for rabbits.
