IM NOT SURE IF THIS APPLIES IN THIS CASE ,BUT MANY PEOPLE HAVE TO USE ALL METHODS OF CONTROL TO KEEP RABBITS IN CHECK . ESPECIALLY IF THEY ARE EMPLOYED TO DO SO . SO MAYBE THE ABOVE REPLY WAS A BIT HARSH .WHEN RABBITS ARE AT PLAGUE PROPORTIONS THERE IS NO ROOM FOR SENTIMENT .I LIKE MANY OTHERS TAKE A STEP BACK AROUND THIS TIME .THE LAND I HUNT HAS DECENT NUMBERS BUT WE MAKE IN ROADS INTO THE POPULATION THROUGHOUT THE WINTER . BUT IF THEY BECAME A SERIOUS PROBLEM IM SURE IF WE DIDNT DO OUR BIT WE WOULD SOON LOSE OUR PERMISSION .

Yeah i Agree, i am also not really one for not hunting my ground in the summer, altho id like walking the local fields with the lurchers in the summer trying to get them a run or 2.
