borntoshoot 1 Posted August 26, 2009 Report Share Posted August 26, 2009 hi all, i have set a few fence snares on a fence seperating my 2 permissions and when i went to check them this morning i had one half grown rabbit in one snare and on a run about a foot away was a magpie in another snare well needless to say i necked it and left it for the redkites, all i can think is that it must have been after the rabbit when i got itself caught in the snare.

WHAT ARE THE CHANCES OF THAT HEYY? Quote Link to post
