Hywel 53 Posted December 7, 2005 Report Share Posted December 7, 2005 Apart from the issue of overworking the warrens (which you shouldn't do) which would certainly contribute to the lack of bunnies, there will be cases where you will try new areas that look occupied, but no-one is at home :search: In these cases, the weather could play a part or another predator e.g. a stoat could have flushed the occupants out before you got there....
