The Duncan 802 Posted December 28, 2011 Report Share Posted December 28, 2011 summer hunting and arseholes with rifles no doubt I reckon the wankers with ferrets take more than the arseholes with rifles and the tosspots with dogs put together. Myxomatosis and RVHD take more than all coonts combined. Not many about here on north bucks either. Nevermind, numbers always bounce back and quickly too if you take the pressure off them and allow them to breed.

Rake aboot 4,935 Posted December 28, 2011 Author Report Share Posted December 28, 2011 180 mile round trip for 1 rabbit,, says a lot really though doesn`t it ? Not just me that is seeing low numbers then,, At that rate,, a rabbit would be dearer than stalking a roe ! Quote Link to post
The Duncan 802 Posted December 28, 2011 Report Share Posted December 28, 2011 I know what you mean Thomps- I went ferreting yesterday with long nets, purse nets, dog n gun and a couple of really solid guys and took the whole day to get 7. Beat watching some shite on telly though. 1 Quote Link to post

burto 18 Posted December 28, 2011 Report Share Posted December 28, 2011 not many on the places i go mixi has knocked the guts out of them lets hope they pick up Quote Link to post
Ossie n Arch 1,682 Posted December 28, 2011 Report Share Posted December 28, 2011 Very few rabbits round here aswell. We got Myxi here too, first time for about 3 years. Out with the lamp before Christmas and only had one slip. The land had loads of Rabbits in the Summer, looked like it was going to be a good season. Quote Link to post
DIVERD 34 Posted December 28, 2011 Report Share Posted December 28, 2011 The rabbits always seem scarce at this time of year i find. It is bloody cold most years at this time in NE scotland, and they alway lie low. I was out stalking last week however and the ground was moving with rabbits on one hill, so they are still there. I dont think we should worry too much about them, they bounce back quickly. I also dont think it matters if it guns, dogs, snares or ferreters that take them, you can oly take them once and it matters not a jot them method of hunting, it wee take the last one there will be none left.
