Sponge Bob 0 Posted November 23, 2006 Report Share Posted November 23, 2006 (edited) Do you think stoats have a big impact on rabbit numbers in areas were stoats are common? I've recently saw six in separate areas of the farm working small warrens, the rabbit numbers are down slightly, but mxy has crept in as well.

Clipper 207 Posted November 23, 2006 Report Share Posted November 23, 2006 you will see more stoats about if the rabbit numbers become low due to mixy cause they have to travel a bit more , we saw 2 while ferreting last weekend Quote Link to post Share on other sites
targa 5 Posted December 12, 2006 Report Share Posted December 12, 2006 dont no how many stoats -in numbers- we are talking about when they are common, but I dont think that a stoat can reduce a rabbit population down, as mixie do, or traffic, or me and my HW 97k They migrate all the time,( read that somewhere) so they just passing your field occasionaly and eat 2 or 3 in a couple days an move on again.
