Rabbit hunting


Recommended Posts

Make sure you check them good for ticks, took my Beagle out two Sundays ago ran him for 2-3 hrs was fine, Monday was fine, Tuesday he started to limp and wouldn't put any weight on his front foot. Checked it over good thinking he had a thorn or briar in his foot found nothing, Tuesday pm had to carry him outside to go poddie and he wouldn't stand, after a quick trip to the vet, found out he had lyme disease. Pain kickers and anti-bios and doing great again. But the vet said he would have had to been bitten with in the last two weeks. I had always heard after it gets cold the ticks go dormant she said don't believe everything you hear. Took him out Sunday two rabbits and no ticks !

I haven't seen anything a bored beagle wouldn't chase!  Spent a week about 20 years ago with some fine beagles in the moose river plains, and after a couple days of tough hunting the  rabbits were scarce...we treed a bear, ran a bobcat, and got several woodcock...all with beagles.  They hunted what was available!

Shades of gray, just ate several marinated bunnies last night. I have never looked at livers for spots, or grubs, or what ever else people cackle about. Every fur bearing mammal has fleas and now ticks, I don't eat them or the fur they are on. I have been eating and hunting rabbits, white and brown ones for 30 plus years. I don't believe I am messed up any more then normal from eating them. I can tell you that snowshoes don't eat as well as the tails. I think it is they have to run to survive, cause they don't go in holes. That is a good looking **** you have. I have 2 excellent female hunters myself.  Hope this helps, have fun, be safe.
