I,ve got a piece of ground not far from me that has always been teeming with rabbits about a week or so ago I had a wander around with the wife and the rimfire to knock over a few. We did a circuit of the first field and didn't see any so we sat down to wait them out, an hour later we decided to move locations walking up a track we had previously been on. Half way along we found a small freshly dead rabbit suspecting a stoat I picked up the carcase to later be fed to the ferrets fifty yards further on we saw another rabbit this time alive but looking drunk which I walked up to and dispatched in the bag he went as well.The rabbits were fed to the ferrets that night and the next morning while checking stock in the same field I found two more dead rabbits and in the last week have found dead rabbits nearly every visit. I have noted they have all been youngsters up to half grown and when skinned no bruising what so ever and the livers are perfect theres no chance that any things been sprayed on the ground and last night I saw six adult rabbits doing what rabbits are best for.It has been suggested VHD but I thought you saw sighs of bleeding around the anus .Any info appreciated.
