Australian once had a thriving rabbit industry, and maybe some remnants still exist. Latest news is, that with the bunnies becoming immune to the latest virus, their numbers are on the increase, what with all the lovely rain, and resultant grass. Personally, as a city dweller, I know how much a rabbit can eat, as a relative keeps a couple as pets - and seemingly buys more food for them than for herself. Yeah, munching all day long, the furry ones can cost you well over $20 per week, along with bag of hay, for nesting, etc. Myself, I've recommended Rabbit Pie as a solution to any financial woes, but once you give a rabbit a name, not just a number, it becomes part of the family, and hence cannibalism is out. (Ah, yes, strip a rabbit naked and then, clad in a pastry overcoat, send it to a very hot clime... Yum, yum.)
