Yes. A small enough rabbit CAN jump right through the mesh in a standard sized yard fence. I know this, because last night I had the little guy (... no not a baby) cornered and poof - he jumped right through the fence and bounded off into the brush. I was stunned for a minute - he sure didn't LOOK like he would have fit through there - but sure enough, he most certainly did. So, not seeing any rabbit holes? No tunnels under your fence? (mine is a 5' chain link) He's probably just jumping right through it. Obviously, there comes a point that a larger rabbit will not get through, but this 3-5 pound rabbit did it without even breaking stride, and a 3-5 pound rabbit is plenty big to tear up your garden. I'm moving my operation to level 2...trapping. If trapping doesn't work, I'll break out my air rifle. Good luck!
