Tumour's on Rabbit
While out hunt'n cottontail's on the weekend, my buddy shot one with tumour's between it's hind leg toe's. The one tumour was the size of a grape. I have never seen this in 38 year's of hunt'n. I still kick my *** , for not turning it in to the M.N.R. to see if they knew what was wrong with it. And NO he did not eat the Rabbit. Any info on this subject would be appreciated. Thank's: Rick.

All animals exhibit tumors except possibly sharks. I wouldn't eat it either, but that's just me, and I'm not that hungry. Wink

Got any crats in your neighborhood? Confused

I once saw a rabbit with Myxomitocis. It had so many pus-pockets and tumors over it's body that it hardly looked like a rabbit. If you EVER find a rabbit with a tumor, or two, do NOT pick it up with bare hands, and if you should, make sure you wash thoroughly with antigerm soap.

That stuff isn't worth risking your life and continuted health over.

Could have been Idatis a small parisite that infected rabbits here in Auz for years it was like a sack filled with fluid caused I'm told by an exess of green Feed over here saw a few cases whilst Rabbit shooting for a living!Doult your Rabbits would have any shortage of green feed so I think the old saying of if it dont look right leave it fits here

Once shot a beaver and found a tumour the size of a small sausage on its chest when I skinned it...
