I've just spent the last hour chasing 2 Rex rabbits through a neighborhood.
I got a call from one of my good friends, a woman who runs an animal rescue. She is also a certified human officer.
Well, she called she said that she had gotten a message from a woman that had seen these two rabbits roaming freely around their neighborhood. She said she had seen them there for about 3 weeks :shock:
I am the only experienced rabbit handler the rescue has, so she called me to go along with.
I was in shock. We turned up at a poor, run down Condo. We asked some people if they had seen some rabbits and they gave us dirty looks and asked "why?"
Anyways, so we saw the rabbits. They looked fairly healthy and the woman who called us was an angel, and was there helping the whole way through. Right away we lost track of the 1st bun, a black rex. Then I saw an agouti female and started the chase. I must have ran behind her for an hour before she slipped under a house :? :x :roll:
We ended up coming home with neither of the buns
I will be sure to go back and try again, but I need some more suggestions.
We had carriers and blankets with us, but they area is so wide and open that it is hard to corner them. It is fenced off though so there is no chance of losing them. I did think of a humane trap, but I think they are too smart and too wild now to fall for that.
Any suggestions?
Thanks
