Rabbits - Nutrition

[short circuit]

Admins is there any sections on veggie diets as have got older I just cannot kill an animal anymore and we dont eat much meat at all now...I must have got soft. I looked into the eyes of a rabbit once and I could not kill it after that since then it just seems wrong

There is no seperate section, any relevant threads would be in this section if anywhere.

Was thinking about trying out the use of snare wires this year to try and fill the freezer up, anyone got any ideas of the best way to set them up please?

Have a look there.

Thanks for the link, will set it on my favourites.

Snares are good I think, because they will work for me when I'm wandering around with the rifle in other areas, they will hunt for me when I'm not able too.

snaring is a good cheap way of effectively killing rabbits, its becoming a lost art in the hunting world... however if done correctly and theres loads online where to set,how to set, different ways of setting aslong as you check morning and night you should be ok.
obviously if you dont have permission on the land you could have a gamekeeper waiting for you and be charged with poaching

as for rabbits, if you check for any health concerns, worms,ticks,abcess,myxi and many others you should be ok, just make sure its thoroughly cooked or if in doubt freeze for a good week to kill of any nasties, wild rabbits in my opinion is alot better and healthier for you than than alot of the prepacked shop bought rubbish, didnt do no one no harm when people was rationed in ww2 and they poached the countryside bare for rabbits....if you dont like the gamey taste just soak overnight in salt water,rinse and cook the next day.... boil, roast, bbq just like you would a chicken.... damn its making me hungry lol
