I've been very disappointed at the lack of rabbits on a few of my permissions, I was thinking the rise in buzzard numbers plus foxes and possibly this new strain of rabbit flu would explain it.
Just got told this morning by a dog walker he'd met couple if chaps ferreting in October, they had a lurcher as well as a bag full of dead rabbit's .
I'm not into dog hunting at all, if you are fair enough.
These guys didn't have permission to be there. And they have ruined what was a pretty good area for rabbits, not over run by any means.
Bloody Sickened.
Rant Over.
