Dylan the trippy rabbit

    We had a huge amount of wild rabbits in our garden

    A few months back we found one of them dead and pretty much since then all the rabbits have vanished.

    Any ideas what might have happened?

    Any swelling around the eyes or other signs of injury?

    No signs of injury.


    The mystery for me is where have all the other rabbits gone.

    It's impossible to answer this without information. A dead rabbit with no signs of injury or disease and a scarcity of other rabbits means nothing.

    Sure,


    we normally have 30+ wild rabbits around, every day.


    One dies, since then. No sign of any rabbits.


    Just thought it was odd.

    As I already mentioned its most likely RHD. It's decimating rabbit numbers all over the country. You won't find many dead or dying rabbits. Most die in the burrows, and death is very quick unlike mixi.
