Bob first caught and tagged 100 rabbits.

When he caught and tagged another set of rabbits, 10 of those were from the initial 100. This suggests that in the specific area, when he caught 100 rabbits the first time, he was seeing 10% of the population.

If 100 was 10%, then the total population is around 1,000 rabbits.
