Skot Ruthless Teale 1,701 Posted January 12, 2014 Report Share Posted January 12, 2014 (edited) got to be careful when lamping. don't take a shot until you identify the animal. if this means getting closer then so be it. from my experience last time I lamped a cat they have green/yellow eyes like foxs whereas rabbits have red I don't shoot foxs so if I see yellow or green eyes I turn the lamp off. if its a red eye jobs a good one its deffinately a rabbit don't know about hares do they glow yellow/green, or red ??
