rabbit pest

Another member here: TheAlpha0116 and I often shoot together. We have now culled well over 400 rabbits from this farm which will be better controled on behalf of the new owners. After cleaning out the edible rabbits, they are hung on the back of the vehicle to cool and allow the fleas to drop off before bagging them up for elderly friends or a local butcher. The meat is fat free and is one of the best meats available. Rabbits that are too small or otherwise unsuitable for human consumption are left for foxes and birds of prey that are known to be in the area. A bullet shot from an elevated position such as the door mirror of a vehicle is more likely to pass safely into soil just behind a rabbit after passing through it than one taken prone with the bullet travelling further before reaching a safe location. The rifleman is fully rested, supported and breathing calmly when shooting from a vehicle and can usually cover more ground in a 4WD than on foot. In general, vehicle based shooting is likely to be more productive as bunnies don’t consider a vehicle to be a predator unless they have good reason to fear it.
