garden siccatears make short work of chopping off feet, the head will twist off easy enough.

good on ya Mickey Duck ya wont get a better descrip of how to do a bunny as the one you give - absolutely correct - deer bunnys cattle pigs goats - open up both airway and arse - let air thru - dry and cold storage - great eating
