As the cadet tells the camera, “I’m relieved … but I’m kinda sad, too, I just got to know him,” a hawk enters, stage left, grabs the mouse, and exits, stage right. “No!” My heart goes out to the cadet (the hawk is probably awfully fond of him right now, too). cries the cadet. “He He didn’t even last five minutes!”.

Red-backed Shrike Eurasian Blackcap A massive European Hare was cute to watch as well, a nice change from the European Rabbits that are very common in our local park. Funny how sometimes you search for birds for ages and when you’re in the right area, or by chance, they are almost too easy to see.

Dongfang is a smallish coastal city on the west coast of Hainan – with one or two main roads, some massive and apparently empty apartment blocks right next to the beach – and some strange swampy area pretty close to the main road.
We hope this is the right decision – only time will tell! Arctic Hare also were largely ignored by predators and bred, well, like rabbits. We thought about doing an intervention but then decided that this post is so loaded with awesome pictures (boxing hares!) Hares take advantage of the warming sun to forage on hill sides.
All right, I’ll admit that I do have a bit of fondness for our resident empid species. They seem to exist only to send you down a rabbit hole of eye ring shape and primary projection. I am happy to say that I have not seen these species.). Harder to tell from the migratories. Ah, but those migratory species!
Rabbits were introduced to the island by guano miners, which turned the previously verdant island into a giant sand dune; almost all vegetation was wiped out. It is correct, of course, to think of extinction this way during the Holocene Extinction, which we are living through right now. What a horror! What a disaster! What a wrong!
Whilst catfish have around 100,000 taste buds, rabbits around 17,000 and humans approximately 9,000, birds rarely exceed 100 of these receptors.

I also keep offering non-melting suet dough well into the summer, because I enjoy watching adult woodpeckers teaching their young how to feed from it.
At any rate, my brief visit to Sepilok showed me that it is a worthy destination in its own right. We heard, but didn’t see, a Brown Wood-ow l, and best of all a massive cat-sized Red Giant Flying Squirrel and a rabbit-sized Sunda Stink-badger. It isn’t worth worrying about too much.
How ridiculous is it that " On the Psychological Continuum ," to say nothing of an article against rabbit fur, is on the same page as Gabriella's Fur Den? I may have just gotten myself fired from Animal Rights Zone. So this was in my e-mail box this morning. Perhaps there is a filter of some find at work. Here's my question for you.
We start right off with some crazy shenanigans that center around Paul dressing like a rabbit as part of a fund raising attempt. Pets Aplenty draws on experiences in his life as a vet, but told through the eyes of his alter ego, Paul Mitchell. So, let’s chat about the book!

How do they know what's right? That would be like brainwashing, and that's just not right. But I have to be realistic and reasonable, as it's not like the whole world is going to go vegan just because it's the right thing to do. And I don't think vegans believe in God, and I don't trust anyone who doesn't believe in God.
That’s right! Dogs, cats, birds (given there is no avian bird flu alert), rabbits and non-venomous reptiles are allowed.

One wouldn’t tether a rabbit out to get a shot of a fox or a coyote, or is that somehow different? Photos that capture great behaviour, and the incredible beauty of birds. Should I worry about how those photos were obtained?
Explanations are simple: only a mother rabbit or a highly trained rehabilitator has a chance of raising and releasing a healthy wild bunny. Teach her to do the right thing, even if it makes her a little sad, because help without knowledge is no help at all. That is, until … you get the picture.
I took home a few of the pellets and found that the owls were feasting on grey squirrels and cottontail rabbits. He was so excited when I described what I had and came right up to meet me. Check out the bones that are clearly visible, you wouldn’t find that with a hawk pellet.

And rain flooded my neighborhood.
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.

There are 104 of these artistic bollards and each group has a rabbit painted on it somewhere for children to find! The following bollards show a group of life-savers and one on the right appears to be carrying a Pacific Gull. You can see one of the rabbits on the second bollard from the right.

Rats arrived on ships and cats, foxes and rabbits were all introduced and they were all detrimental to the bird population.
