Who would have thunk. How long have hunters like Ron Thomson been writing about this and its impact on ecosystems. What a revelation.

You are obviously unfamiliar with the Texas Jackrabbit.

As mike suggested, consider the Texas jackrabbit - as in this picture postcard from 1936:

Cool

Yeah, those boys back in 1936 were not bothered by shooting baby Jack Rabbits like the one in that photo. We let em grow a bit more nowadays!!

Wow. The environmentalists have really hit on something here. If you see acres of dead, broken trees, what would you figure caused it? Termites? Global warming?

Just because they filmed one cow knocking down one tree doesn't mean the bunnies are not responsible for a lot of it. I remind you of the Rabbit in "The Holy Grail".

Strangely enough, "educated" illuminati like Prof Rudi van Aardte, Dr. Mike Chase, together with Profs Norman Owen-Smith, Graham Kerley, Bruce Page and Rob Slotow cannot see this. What they can see is how-ever, the large sums of money bandied about by IFAW. They then prostitute themselves to such an extent, that there is little truth in whatever they espouse as regards to game management, and especially elephant management. These are the very worst of animal rightists as the general public swallows their brand of horse wallop believing it to be based on scientific fact coming from so called educated men. The very worst of the twat brigade.

As sweaty-palmed kid up in Kansas, I actually went on a couple of jack rabbit "culls." We called them "drives" and their effectiveness was really over-rated. We did use shotguns and not baseball bats as they did during the depression.

Well...... If there's too many of them for the ecosystem to support, we ought to cull some of them.... I'm just saying...

Hopefully, Namibia will have one less in a few weeks.... just doing my part.
