Rather more are killed in collisions with cars. Rabbits have become surprisingly scarce close to home, but I don’t have to go far to see warrens of them, with as many as 30 or 40 in one field. Muntjac venison is very good to eat, but despite this, not many are shot. and Mountain Hares in Scotland and Scandinavia.

Nonnative species have huge impacts on wildlife species everywhere… mice kill seabird chicks in their burrows, rats eat endangered bird eggs, overpopulated deer clear the understory of forests, pigs root out native plants and terrestrial animals, cats kill anything they can get their paws on. The logic of this is ridiculous.

In the Far East they keep birds of prey which they use to capture other animals such as foxes and rabbits. Little boys kill thousands of birds each year with slingshots. The illegal bird trade kills thousands of birds each year just in the manner they are smuggled. The quail, guans, ducks and pheasant are hunted for their meat.

The island was being ravaged by rabbits that were destroying every last tree, threatening the future of three lizards and two snakes. Animal rights groups sued to prevent poison being used to kill the rabbits, and even told a mediator that they would rather every reptile on the island die than a single rabbit be killed.

But one day, unbeknownst to her, a wild rabbit dug under the fence. She let her dog out, he spotted the rabbit, and took off like a bullet. She doesn’t use pesticides, she loves the local wildlife, and she does everything a good pet owner should do. Nina raced after him, screaming, but she couldn’t save the bunny.

Sometimes, I feel that competing bird conservation groups are trying too hard to get my attention and give the impression that just by sitting here on my futon and breathing, I have killed several birds. I’m now petting my rabbit Dougal, 6 more birds dead. I just looked over at my husband–bam 5 birds dead.

Photographer Mark Ross has captured some truly beautiful, and touching, photos of animals abandoned at kill shelters. From dogs to cats, kittens, and even birds and rabbits, there are all kinds of animals to be found at shelters. The photos in the book made me want to reach out and save each one of them.

I also watched a red fox bury her mate after a cougar had killed him. He never chased the rabbits, squirrels, chipmunks, or deer who regularly visited. Over the years Jethro approached rabbits as if they should be his friends, but they usually fled. They all stood vigil for a time, nodded their heads, and flew off.

Dirt hawking is a form of falconry that involves hunting rabbits and other small game with Harris Hawks (other hawk species also qualify). I have never been one to advocate the needless killing of animals for whatever purpose. My job is to move ahead and kick bushes in the hope of flushing a rabbit or hare. “HO!!

was advertised to online customers as having an "imitation rabbit fur collar." One of the questions on the survey is: "Is it morally permissible to kill animals for fur coats?" Just how do Chinese workers kill raccoon dogs?" Documentary video reveals that this does not kill the dogs. Not according to my students.
