Though I’ve not seen any of our state’s predators, it is widely recognized that living in the State of Washington we have a large number of predators, Mountain Lions, Bobcats, Lynx, Bears, Wolves, Coyotes and Foxes. Each one of these predators have the ability to eat small and large animals. I am putting out an all call to any or all of these predators. If I send you my address would you send a couple of emissaries around? I promise you will be richly rewarded.
Sound totally insane right? Well I know that mountain lions and bears can’t read (maybe wolves can, they are pretty smart) but I do have a totally rational reason for the need. We have rabbits here. Brazen or stupid, I don’t know which and I don’t care, I just want them gone. The other day a rabbit ran into our backyard in the afternoon while Orso and I were out there. He ran straight at Orso then turned and ran at me with Orso in hot pursuit. I was almost run down by a charging hundred-pound brown locomotive that only had eyes on a one-pound fur ball. Good thing I was paying attention and jumped aside.
Yesterday morning on our early morning walk, yes I still walk Orso at the crack of dawn, when I noticed Orso was very intent on something ahead of us. Something small with tall ears, another rabbit was sitting in the road just waiting for us, not moving, just waiting. Stupid rabbit, or maybe he was suicidal having the curse of not knowing utter fear and was totally bored with the good life. I tightened my grip on the leash and told him no, for all the good that did. He still lunged at the rabbit and woofed quite loud at four in the morning. People are sleeping and don’t want to hear a very deep loud woof then the screams of a rabbit in the jaws of my menace.
Again this morning we ran across another rabbit with a death wish just sitting on the side of the road, watching us come toward him. Again with the woof and the lunge. The evil little creature jump meandered off with a couple of small hops. Not the wild jerking and sprinting I have seen on the nature shows with a fox or coyote in hot pursuit. I could see my fears of being a boat anchor coming true once again if I don’t get rid of these small suicidal marsupials.
Hence my plea to all predators, please come, I’ll send you my address and I promise you will feast handsomely.
A woman's view of hunting...with men 
We have some wonderful native (and exotic invading) predators I’ll send you that have a thing for rabbits here in Florida. Some gators, eastern diamond backs in the 5′ plus range and pythons do a job on anything small enough that’s warm blooded. Want some? You pay the freight. (And warn your neighbors)
You know that might just work. They did find a couple gators in Minnesota this summer. So it’s not that far fetched.
I’d guess the bobcat is your best bet for getting the adults – low to the ground and fast! Not likely to be seen by Orso, either.
That will work now if I had an address 😉
Choppy would help, but (a) she’s a long way away, and (b) she has never actually caught a rabbit. So she is of little use to you.
She’s too sweet I need a killer.
Choppy is not your dog. Now, my sister has a cat that kills so many bunnies that there is an actual bone/guts pile where she takes what pieces the cat leaves her. It’s super gross, but if you need dead bunnies, that cat is your woman. And she’s even declawed! Who knows how many dead bunnies she would have to her name if she had claws.
