    Brown bears apparently eat rabbit. I reckon we secretly introduce* brown bears to manage the rabbit population - and have a new, exciting game species to hunt!

    *just like they snuck myxamatosis into the country

    Brown bears would quickly learn to hang around picnic grounds - and we'd no longer have a problem with hoons dumping stolen cars at night there - so a crime problem solved too!!!

    OK maybe that would be expecting too much

    It takes 43 muscle's to frown and 17 to smile, but only 3 for proper trigger pull.
    What more do we need? If we are above ground and breathing the rest is up to us!
    Rule 1: Treat every firearm as loaded
    Rule 2: Always point firearms in a safe direction
    Rule 3: Load a firearm only when ready to fire
    Rule 4: Identify your target beyond all doubt
    Rule 5: Check your firing zone
    Rule 6: Store firearms and ammunition safely
    Rule 7: Avoid alcohol and drugs when handling firearms

    I think the Polar Bear and the Artic Hare released would cover requirements guys?

    Would be very hard to spot one of those against the snow background, not sure whether I'd like to wait around to long trying to shoot one.

    I might need to carry something bigger than 22cal when on rabbit duties. Might be the odd argument when it comes to gutting and skinning too.
    There are only three types of people in this world. Those that can count, and those that can't!

    Yes but it would be as funny as fuck watching someone try.
