They've done it in New Zealand before as well, illegally (or something similar at least). It worked a bit, in one region, then failed. The result was farmers wound up fighting a massive population growth of rose hip plants which took over as much as the rabbits did.
At least that's what some old guy told me when I was walking through the South Island on the TA.
