Its typical I needed to get a few rabbits so popped out with the LR last night thinking it would only take 30 mins or so. Stubble field so should have been easy, few rabbits on the thermal and first 3 all skinny with tell tale signs of mixy, two virtually blind others puffy heads. Not seen it about for several years.

Then it rained!!

On hols in nth Yorkshire today and saw a rabbit with late stages of myxi, is it making a comeback in other areas, haven't seen any in Lincolnshire for many a year!
 
Myxi seems to come round regular as clockwork, every 5 years or so, just when you think that the bunny population is getting nicely back up to shootable numbers.
 
West Nottinghamshire has it again I have just noticed. There is a huge 200acre housing development on greebelt across the road from my permission by coincidence... I reckon they have put mixy down to clear the rabbits out of their area
