This is the picture of what i thought was a fox had pulled it from the hole and the buzzard took over , on second thoughts the Buzzard could have ran it in then pulled it out , we will never know but i can see it happening . That location is a small open Oak wood where Buzzards nest and within a few yards of the very first suspected attack .

I built a house for a chap a few years back and the site got robbed , he laid two doors down across the entrance that were studded with nails and covered them up , early next morning he pulled on the site and done allsix tyres on his pick up , he pulled out on to the layby and called the breakdown waggon and also his mrs to pick him up , his mrs came flying down the road onto the site in her Merc, sports and done both her front tyres.

Years ago i put a picture of a rabbit in a snare and asked the question ; what has done this ? the back legs had been completely stripped of meat and i had never seen any thing like it , there was a lot of replies saying , fox , cat , ferret , otter , mink plus the usual idiot comments , then just as the thread was about dead a chap came on and said it looked to him that it had been done by an immature Buzzard , this mad e perfect sense , Time of the year, state of the rabbit , and location , over the years i have seen this damage a few times and have actually seen Buzzards standing by ,

put a picture up mate , then some one may be able to point out what you may be doing wrong . Try to show the snare , the run and where they are coming from

I have had a look on the net and that was the first thing that came up , there was also numerous lies from various sources from all over the country stating Rabbits were a major part of the birds diet, accompanied obviously Photo-Shopped pictures, as for a Fox trying to drag that rabbit away, i doubt it ! No weak legged Leicestershire Fox would be capable of such a feat or inflicting those horrific injuries though some people [usually readers of the VIZ Book of Birds ] will tell you they will some times attack an elderly or weak chicken , these people can often be found dashing round t

A buzzard is a scrounger more than owt else ..they will take a free meal if they can get it...but they are a poor excuse for a hunting bird..their weak feet are not best suited for even trying to kill a full grown bunny...maybe the odd daft young easy bunny. That is what buzzards do to rabbits i have had it a few times though i have never actually seen one kill a rabbit , as to having weak feet speak to a man who has taken one out of a bird trap its still only scrounged it though...it didn't kill it.. crows porbably started it off and buzzards,kites etc etc will always take

Teach you to look after them a bit better then wont it .

i have had them do damage to snared rabbits in the past and also seen them standing by them , there are a lot of pheasants left in this area and the keepers say that they are no bother but i am not so sure.

Ithink its Pitcarn , a few years ago they all got done for raping their kids , they want drowning as well .

When i was young me and my sister used to catch the bus to town , we were the only ones on the bus other than two foreign ladies ,over time they used to speak to us and often gave us a sweet or a piece of cake , one day we both saw that they had numbers painted on their wrists , i thought nothing about this but my sister who was three years older than me did , some time later she asked mam what it was , mam must have been the same age as those girls, told us never to talk about it again and started to cry.

A Good Price For Dressed Rabbits.

Been back to the hill this morning hoping to set some snares but they must have moved sheep onto it yesterday evening , i went over the top to the arable side and the hedge was buzzing with rabbits and the field was covered in runs for hundreds of yards i don't what had been set but it seemed to have been seeded through the stubble , i think that the runs were just to get to the other side. i tried a peg out on the tilth but it was a waste of time i really needed hoop snares but i aint got any so that was that , i was going to set them on the headland where the soil was firmer b
