 What happened to my rabbit?

One of our rabbits died today, and I was wondering if anyone could help me as to figure out why? He was lying on his side, breathing very rapidly, and about 5 minutes later, he died. Our rabbits are free range on our farm. It didn’t get hot today, so I ruled out heat stroke. Also, there was no swelling or cuts, so I don’t think a rattlesnake did it. He was very sweaty, so my little brother laid him in the shade. If anyone knows anything, we would sure like to know so that we can prevent it in the future. Thanks!
