Thanks for the replies. Had a mate look at the area and the rabbit and with the marks he says it probably been attacked by a stoat, weasel etc. Looking forward to setting some more later this week.

I'm a Head Gardner in a large gardens. Had a a bit of a rabbit problem of late and after reading up on the forym at the 2 snaring articles by GS Waters, I took the plunge and bought 10 snares from 14 acres.I only set 4 snares last night and caught 2 rabbits this morning. Really chuffed with myself. However one looked a right mess and my first thought was mixed. It was perfect, no swollen eyes etc.. but it was missing quite a bit of hair and its skin looked very sore. Not sure if something had been attacking it or it was mixed. Ps I can't fault GS Waters article and 14 acre snares. 10 out of 1

I have a problem with a few rabbits in my garden. There's some defined runs. Im looking to purchase half a dozen good quality snares.
