Blackpowder Posted April 24, 2010 Report Share Posted April 24, 2010 Approaching a corner on a country road earlier today, my passenger said, "oh there's a real chase going on there". Sure enough seen through an open gate as we neared the corner it was the old rabbit and stoat scenario, only this time it was a 3/4 grown rabbit chasing a stoat. Something I had never seen before as rabbits seem to be easy and ready victims of these nimble hunters. Anyone else here seen a rabbit defending itself against a stoat or weasel.

Bleeh Posted April 24, 2010 Report Share Posted April 24, 2010 Stoats attack a bit like cats, they'll attack if it's sneaky but run away if (anything) confronts it head on. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
