I'd gladly go back to the rabbit days mate .Total eradication here in most places .

people should be dropping rabbits of 6here 9 there that sort of thing.

all i see is the english lads ferreting and necking rabbits,ive never seen this over here anybody i know all keep um live.

 

You do know they're edible ?

Most lads as you say neck them as most lads are not messers.

 

their also 7quid each at the dog track,thiers fellas labouring alday for 60quid.

 

?????????????????????????????

I rest my case.

OK, so now that everyone knows what I look like I'll tell the truth about that photo.

That's a foxcub that I got to like and christened "Foxbolter". After a while it turned into a big pain in the ass so I shot it.

King I am willing to stand corrected but I think the European fox Vulpes vulpes was introduced to Australia in 1833 by which time there was already a plague of rabbit as they had been introduced in 1788 and had bred like rabbits. So from the off I would have said there would have been plenty for them to eat. When mixie was introduced in the 1950's I would have thought that there would have been a big population crash of the red fox. Perhaps one of our Australian members can give us more info?

 

TC[/quote I think the fox population went crazy as well when the settlers introduced them for hunting can't remember the correct amount I know the number brought over and released was not to many and there's millions of them now

As far as I'm aware, foxes in Australia had turned their attention to slower native critters long before the rabbits numbers dropped through myxy. Which is why foxes have been so successful and many native species are in decline.

I also think there's a link between the spread of myxy in this country and a high buzzard population,

ie. bird feeds on a myxy rabbit in the morning and by nightfall the fleas could be in the next county.

Could explain why it first appears in the middle of good rabbit ground.

good theory another one is they got there in the back of a farmers 4x4.

Only theories, the mixy had no problems travelling through rabbit population areas always, same places, every year, and everywhere, and even some farmer or some one dropping a mixy off., to spread it,.
