How do you keep the damn bunnies away. (I never call them just bunnies, it is always damn bunnies, they've eaten so many of my plants and always the coneflowers.)

Zorak, the wonder dog....
He likes the taste of bunnies.
The worming medicine, not so much.
@Sheannutt I garden in an upland desert and I've had to put out water bowls for bunnies, too. Even filled them, and my ollas, using a drip irrigation system.
I live in the Midwest and what works for me, somewhat, are designated "bunny depots".
I deliberately leave the lawn long where there is White Clover, their absolute fave, as well as Bird's Foot Trefoil. This keeps them from most of my more prized plants, until they have 200 babies that is.
How does one go about inviting a fox for dinner?
Beautiful native perennials, and definitely in at least the top 10 favorites of monarch butterflies ?

Coneflowers, Liatris and Goldenrod are the top three perennials for Monarchs.
Top annuals are Zinnias and Tithonia. Tithonia is a huge draw
