fred90 3,097 Posted January 12, 2020 Report Share Posted January 12, 2020 years ago Lincolnshire was the promised land to East Midlands lads like me. you would see them on grass verges, roundabouts etc. plenty run over. I went to the coast early new years day and didn't see a single rabbit run over or sat on the verges, what a sad state it is. Quote Link to post

I thought a few of them released wouldn’t hurt Quote Link to post

When I was a kid there were rabbits everywhere but birds of prey were a rarity and badgers the same. The tables have turned now! Quote Link to post
