Well guys While I respect Srila Prabhupada words and teachings I am not

so sure planting enough for all the rabbits to share is a remote possibility.

There is a horrifying event that just occurred in Australia seems all the

conditions were perfect and the mouse population exploded. No, there weren't

a few extra mice there were millions and millions of extra mice. The crops

had been great the harvest bountiful the mice grew to fit the bounty. It was

estimated that there was a mouse for every square meter they literally ate

every thing! There are pictures of them literally knee deep in the dairy and

grannerys. then when the food was eaten up the mice started eating or at

least biting the humans and cattle the cats were overwhelmed and ran to hide.

YOU CANNOT BRIBE ANIMALS! If a critter finds a good food sourse why would

it want to move on? It will stay and breed, Rabbits, tame ones have eight

babies every two months. I don't know what it is for wild cotton tails

but..... Even if they have four every two months and are capable of breeding

at age four or five months If you have ten female wild cotton tails to start

with you will have forty the first five months and 160 by the tenth month on

and on. If you encourage them by providing them with food you are inviting

disaster. Yes, I know that the Australia incident is an exception, but If my

son wanted to starve me to death by eating my food I would probably let him

and his children have my food even if it meant my own death. But That is not

an event I would like to face. ANIMALS WILL GROW TO FILL THEIR ENVIRONMENT.

I prefer not to give my lessor brothers and sisters an opportunity to destroy

my crops nor do I intend to plant for them. If Prabhupada said we can use

deadly force to protect our lives well I am in complete agreement.
