Back Stabbath 1 Posted February 15, 2010 Report Share Posted February 15, 2010 They got flooded where I am! Plus the snow was harsh. They've just returned recently. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
FightTheBan 1,147 Posted February 15, 2010 Report Share Posted February 15, 2010 3 weeks of constant snow cover on one of my permissions has thinned out the rabbits enormously. Dead carcasses lying everywhere, i think at least half have died out, the ones still left are as fit as you would want though so it must have just thinned out the sh1te.

Swampy 147 Posted February 17, 2010 Report Share Posted February 17, 2010 It really makes my P*ss boil when I here some of the so called "hunters" on here give their "experienced" opinion on wildlife issues. It shows them up for what they really are. A load of old gobsheites! Anyone who has been in the game as long as I have knows exactly what the score is. It aint some dude with a goshawk, it aint no pikeys running their hounds too hard nor is it the dreaded mixy. FFS in this weather fleas are dying out big time. All the bunnies are getting ready for Easter! Duh! rgds Swampy eastereggning Quote Link to post Share on other sites

FTB this is true , many many dead rabbit here on farm, cold wether & poor grass quality, in field kill them, many live in silage now & ruin food for sheep & cow. soon many be mating & lots be running again, when sun come.
