Yes Fact of the matter is...That even in areas where no one else goes and there's no way they're getting poached by the Fly-by-Night Shitesters with no Permissions...The numbers are still very very Low. The keepers and the estate managers have concluded that if there's no bunnies to catch,There will be no Outsiders coming in to chase them. Drop boxes and shooting/trapping/hunting of the humble bunnies has been added to their workloads and the fact that the Gundog Fraternity will pay good money for live bunnies adds just a few more reasons into the demise of our greatest little adversary. Durham,Northumberland and Scotland are the next places that will be feeling the pinch. ENJOY IT WHILE YOU CAN CHAPS. . . As History tells us.. All good things must come to an end...lol. Anyone remember Bakewell in the 1980s ? ... I have still never seen as many rabbits anywhere to this day. Yes i remember bakewell and carver i got caught there lamping in1985 1983 for me...lol... It got to the point where if you got within a mile of the place you were lucky... the coppers were well on top of all the vehicles coming in and out of the surrounding areas and you got stopped before you even got out of the vehicle.. . . Its still alreet for the trout ticklers amongst us...hmmm. Quote Link to post
