Rabbits

It was interesting to read reports yesterday about the exploding rabbit population in the GTA. The balance of nature was upset about five years ago when a bout of mange wiped out the local fox and coyote population.

Since then wild rabbits have had no predators, and doing what rabbits do, the result has been a huge pain in the ass for people, including me.

Last spring I planted some nice Boston Ivy along the back fence of my yard and it was strong and healthy by the fall.

During the summer however, I had noticed a lot of cute little rabbits hopping through my yard but never thought much of it. Not until this spring when an inspection of my Boston Ivy revealed every one of the eight plants had been chewed off at the ground.

Some of the branches had grown out ten and twelve feet, but they were all dead because when the weather got cold, and the grass had gone dormant, the rabbits turned to the Ivy.

Fortunately the Boston Ivy survived at the roots, and it's growing again, but I lost a whole year of progress to the bloody rabbits.

The problem with these rabbits is that they're so damn cute. Now when I see one in the backyard I want to go out and club it with a shovel, but I can't bring myself to do it.

I'd much rather it be eaten by a fox.
