That's not good. Looks like it's hitting Jackrabbits. https://www.cbs19.tv/article/news/l...morrhagic-disease-in-texas-first-of-2021TPWD has confirmed RHDV2 in the wild rabbit population in the following counties: Brewster County Cottle County Culberson County El Paso County Gaines County Hale County Hockley County Hudspeth County Jeff Davis County Lubbock County Pecos County Presidio County Randall County Terrell County Ward County

Just another reason to shoot all jackrabbits. In most ranges I think I read 15 to 1. Meaning 15 rabbits utilized same feed as one cow. Id just be weary of a predation shift

Id just be weary of a predation shift Then manage the predator problem at the same time.

Kind of like culling bucks to create an influence in genetics … sounds like an easy practice… In reality it seldom happens to the extent that matters. Calling totes even 10 times a year is a joke. If you aren’t running a trap line 12 months a year and helo atleast 2x a year, what are you actually doing.

Yeah well we've had that going around up here for last coupe of years, still a lot of rabbits.
Found a few dead ones but we still have tons of jacks and cottontails.
BOBO is right on the predators.

I told you what to do and all you want to do is make excuses.

Here in SW, OK, there hasn't been any jackrabbits for 20 years or more. Biologists blamed Rabbit Hemorrhagic disease. The funny thing is there's always been plenty of cottontails. . This must be a new strain that's evolved.

We had jackrabbit on one part of the lease 12 years ago but haven't seen them since.
