Wild Black


Recommended Posts

A couple of years back, October 2005, Meg’ caught this ‘wild black’ and returned the wretched thing to me alive! Until that moment I had never seen such a bad case of Myxomatosis in a living rabbit! It’s reckoned that most rabbits that catch it will die in seven to ten days as a result of this hideous man induced disease, usually from dehydration starvation and probably hypothermia as well! So bad was this example that if I had not ‘zoomed’ in on the image you would find it difficult to be able to tell its arse from its ear!

The image link below shows the demise of this unfortunate coney. It never moved until Meg’s was upon it and even then she was unsure of the rabbit as its behaviour was, as you can imagine, not up to par. As she runs the rabbit you could almost imagine what Meg’ is thinking, “what the feck is thisâ€, as it does not appear to her as any normal rabbit should!
