Fruit trees damaged by rabbits

I planted 3 dwarf fruit trees last summer, 2 apple and one peach. They were doing well until this spring when something, (I assume rabbits) ate the bark all the way around the trees above the bark wrap. Now there seems to be no life above the wrap. Should I leave the wrap on and cut the tree off at that point? Can these trees be saved?
