Shot 600 in one night! Wow, he must have had them line up in front of a machine gun turret. :)
I understand that in OZ you can make a decent living from killing rabbits and kangaroos.
Until my father could no longer get around, saturday dinner at his house from mid-November until May was apple-fed rabbit meat.

The message from snipped-for-privacy@smart.net (Dick Adams) contains these words:
No need; he used a method called lamping. (Also used for shooting foxes) The victims line themselves up to be shot.

In the States, we call it 'jacklighting'. It's used for shooting deer from the highway.

snipped-for-privacy@smart.net (Dick Adams) expounded:
Jacking deer is illegal in most if not all states.
Shooting deer from your car is, or should be, illegal everywhere. Jacklighting is very dangerous. The only place I have heard of it being legal is in Florida, but only for registered members of recognized indian tribes.
After all is said and done, I have no sympathy for rabbits. Especially those who think my garden is a dinner table.
