I've got a rabbit in my yard who thinks I'm running a salad bar. I'm
borrowing a Havahart trap this evening. I know a couple of sure-fire ways
to
lure a squirrel into one of those, but not a rabbit. The bait's got to be
something tastier than my lettuce & broccoli leaves. Anyone got any ideas?
I'd try a carrot, but I wonder if rabbits are tired of being stereotyped
based on Bugs Bunny cartoons.


It's the carrot tops they like. There's nothing sure fire I know but
violence.


I have a rotator cuff injury that's wreaking havoc on my shooting skills.
So, at the moment, I'm stuck with the trap. :-)

I'm a vegetarian & have been for 30+ years, but my great-grampa ran a
rabbitry & when I was a kid I ate rabbit, both farm-raised, & hunted out
on the San Juans. So I would not be horrified to learn some gardener shot
a rabbit, if they at least didn't waste the meat afterward.
