The bio fuel part of the story is just a cover for culling out the nuisance rabbits. By the time you pay for ammunition, manpower to hunt and collect them, the cost of deep freezing the critters and trucking them in a refer truck to the power plant, the net gain in energy is negligible.

I can't help it... I'm picturing a kind of bunny-Auschwitz, were hundreds of thousands of little twitching-nosed balls of fur get driven in by the trainload, gassed and then burned in ovens.
Thirty years from now there will be a museum in Stockholm with horrible visions of dead bunnies, and the world will be told to 'never forget'.

Wow, Here in my parts the stray rabbits are not so complacent and easy to catch. I wonder what the protestors would say about the beagling I did last weekend. We got the dogs damn close to the little bunnies. But they all got away in the end.

The little buggers infest southern Orange County (CA) by the billions. There were idiots in the gated community where I lived who were feeding the fuzzy rats, forcing me to garden using toxic or spiny plants to deter them. I also scattered lots of dried peppers on top of the mulch to make the garden smell like a hot sauce factory to them. I once observed coyotes jumping the community wall to get inside to pick off the plump juicy fur balls.

and/or the fat house-cat who wandered outside....
...I used to hate coyotes and hunted them for cash as a teen - until I moved here and realized they were natures answer to the fat, lazy house cat. Thank You Mother Nature, lazy felines deserve a nasty slow death.

Nope, love cats - as long as they understand that they have a job to do and aren't here just to hang out and act like a homeboy from Compton.
