Eating Rabbits in the Summer

[bornagainbowhunter]

You we always called the Wolves also.  Once you see them you will never have to ask if you can eat a critter that has them...

[Rusty in Fla.]

Here in Fla I've seen salt water trout with worms as well if caught in the summer. They are parasites and if the meat is fully cooked they will do no harm. there is that mental thing though. If you can  get past the thought, you're OK.

Maybe the worms are natures way of making sure you are followinglocal game laws.....

[kestimator]

Some years in parts of Texas we might not get to do much if any hunting if we had to wait on a frost     I grew up hearing the frost rule too.  I'd heard the "R" rule in regards to making sure that you didn't kill a rabbit or squirrel with babies still dependent on the mother.  I don't know if that is true, but I usually go by that rule.  However, I am not defending a vegetable garden at this time

Uhh, rabbit season isnt open here in KY till around Nov.? Better check your local regs!

[Coonbait]

Koger, Don't go there. Rau is already aware of the regs.

So we are all happily discussing a guy planning on breaking the game laws of his state?

I would understand protecting a garden that meant life or death....I'm betting this garden islike the rest of ours, just a hobby.

Breaking the law is breaking the law.

Trap it in a box trap and relocate it before this thread gets real ugly!IMHO

[RAU]

Im happy to report that all rabbits in my garden have been live trapped and removed to greener pastures.
