david901 165 Posted November 3, 2015 Report Share Posted November 3, 2015 Nice one Bullet I caught one with a Harris' Hawk years ago, before digital cameras were common [no pics, that's my excuse ] There was an area that had a few around but the Hawk was never really sure about them until i ferreted one out one day and the ferret nipped it as it bolted. The fact the rabbit squealed encouraged the hawk to grab and hold it. I never did catch another one and Mixy has now all but wiped out that colony of rabbits. Quote Link to post
muttley94 74 Posted November 3, 2015 Report Share Posted November 3, 2015 what is it that causes the black rabbits? when i first saw a picture a while i just assumed it was an escaped pet that had turned wild again! but is it just a gene that gets thrown up every now and again? Quote Link to post
