Hey! That could be a new episode for the Twilight Zone

Dude, I screamed like a girl on Tuesday. Somebody put a cardboard box behind my work. I opened the lid and there was a big dead rabbit in it. Scared the #### out of me. It was like a pet rabbit, too. Black and brown and white versus like one of those hares around town. Had to shovel the poor thing into the dumpster.

I was pretty ok with those videos until the one had all the carcasses flying out of the grain machinery. That's when I had to hit pause and scroll down the page.

Catch and release them where? That's about as intelligent as Ben Shapiro advising that coastal residents will just sell their homes when sea levels rise.

True. But I was looking at it more from a pet owner view than animals in the wild. In this article they talk more about domestic animals that don't eat rodents to survive so they will take in much less poison, if any, whereas I can see wildlife having the potential to consume more increasing their risk.

I never had an issue and don't know anyone who has, obviously that's ancedotal. And I hate mice, kill them by any means necessary!

In australia's case though, I don't think you have a choice. The old peanut butter bucket trick ain't gonna cut it.
