Any particular sub-species for which you hunt for pelts? I grew up hunting your typical cottontail rabbits for the stew meat and we never considered the pelts. I imagine that somewhere there are some big hares whose pelts would bring a nice price if undamaged.
Truthfully, I really don't care that much for the taste of rabbit meat but it was such a traditional event that I never thought there was a chance to opt out.
At any given time I'll see fifteen to twenty rabbits in the back yard in the mornings I really don't want to take them out but they are messing with the victory garden and the wife says they have to go lol but if I'm going to kill them might as well make use of them
Owls sure are. I find them absolutely fascinating!
I don't think coyotes are a real danger to humans but they sure can decimate bobwhite quail and grouse and rabbit populations. And eat their way thru watermelon crops with abandon.
There are coyotes here but never seem unless you go looking and I don't leave my kid outside at nite so I'm good as far as the garden get a cheap garden hose preferably one with a yellow strip lay it in the garden looks like a snake will keep the rabbits out
For some reason the coyotes over here do run around during the day probably because of all the new development taking up large amounts of land I always see them crossing the highway and around the mesquites at the edge of the property
