Two snares are set through where the bunnies like to run. I'd set more, but the neighbors may get upset.

Two enough or set more?

Two should be plenty, but I don't think you'll find any bunnys in the AM.
Maybe some bloody snares...

Not working right now so I will pull the nightshift.

tagged for owl sightings.

Man I'm really impressed by this owl thing. I thought owls just kept people from polluting the woods.

No, they're pretty impressive critters. The Great Horned Owls down here make dogs tuck tail and herd you back into the house, whining the whole way.

Our cat leaves us bunnies on the porch about every two weeks.

ETA if you have a burrow around, I've heard you can use nice thorny blackberry vines to "roto rooter" them out.

I ran over a whole nest of rabbits while running a bushhog.
There was a patch of grass about 4' in diameter that was nothing but blood and fur

Well whatever doesn't get eaten by the owl will be eaten for dinner

Owl

Ah, that's weird you say that my neighbor across the street is a biologist and he spotted some sort of rare owl near the crime scene a few months back. He said they were from near the Dakotas and migrating down. We do have lots of hawks in the area as well, but this happened at night, I see the hawks hunt in the day.

ETA: I didn't know owls were such bad asses

I was at work over the winter and we heard this incredible death shrill
Looked out the window and an owl had hit a hare and was carrying it off. After that I had a new respect for owls

Have a trail cam? Or know someone that does? I would tie the rabbit to a stake in the ground and set up a trailcam to capture it all.

I really wish I would have taken a pic before I scooped it up this morning, but I failed. Where I live we have a ridiculous amount of rabbits. Wife tells me this morning she see's a rabbit's leg in the front yard covered in ants. I look a little further into the yar, find another hind leg, both legs still have a little meat on them and there is some fur around the other leg and a big pile of black shit that I didn't recognize from ever cleaning a rabbit. Not even the head was left.

Coyote?

Devil Worshipers?

Feral Cat?

You have uncovered one of the great secrets of the world. The fur used by furries for their costumes doesn't grow on trees, it grows on bunnies! There's a furry somewhere near you that's wearing your bunny now.

Consider yourself warned!

You know in summer time rabbits have worms, the worms normally die after the first frost. Just an FYI if your planning on eating them.

I wouldn't with my luck I'd snare a neighbor kid that would panic and die of a heart attack or I'd snare some wild engandered thing and end up in prison because some wild life org was following it and saw my snare get it.

That's why rabbit season is in winter

Can't really eat them in the Summer unless they are frozen in the freezer.

German Police Hunt Bunny Murderer

4:27pm UK, Wednesday July 09, 2008

Greg Milam, Europe correspondent

Police in Germany admit they are baffled by the beheading of more than forty pet rabbits.

Killing spree is one of Germany's worst episodes of animal cruelty

The bunny killing spree started last summer but has gathered pace in the last few weeks and is now regarded as one of the country's worst episodes of animal cruelty.

Once beheaded the animals are often bled dry and the blood taken away, leading police to suspect there could be a satanic or occult connection to the killings.

A taskforce of five officers has interviewed more than 300 people in the search for the killer.

The 'bunny murders' have alarmed owners living around the city of Dortmund who have now offered a £2000 reward to catch the killer.

In one case, brother and sister rabbits Fussel and Marianne were dragged from their cage, decapitated, bled dry and their bodies left for their owners to find the next morning.

A spokesman for Dortmund police told Sky News: "We are no nearer to understanding why anyone would want to do this."

Police even believe it is possible the killer could be using satellite images from Google Earth to identify potential targets.

Sabine Reide, who runs a group which monitors religious sects, believes the killers could be satanists collecting blood for a ritual.

Whatever the motive, rabbit owners are now going to extreme lengths to protect their pets, installing new security equipment and keeping their location secret.

Volker Schutte, police spokesman for the Witten district, said: "The person must have a very good knowledge of the area.

"It's not like after the war when everyone had a rabbit in the backyard. They aren't that easy to find and many of the cages can't be seen from the road."

I have a few Northern Harriers (Hawks) come in every Spring, I start finding little piles of fur and/or feathers all over which tells me they are back, and when they are activley hunting it is very quiet in the Hood.
