The first step in adaptive pest management is to define the problem and understand as much as possible about the pest. Analysis of rabbit problems is aided by data on:

  • Their impact – signs of rabbit damage.
  • Their distribution and abundance – where rabbits are found and, especially, where their warrens are. Warrens are crucial to rabbit breeding and therefore a key to their control. Knowing where they feed can help if baiting will be part of the control program.

Having a rabbit put to sleep because of old age or ill-health is a very difficult decision to make and should not be taken lightly.

A good rabbit owner will notice changes in their pet’s behaviour that signal illness, pain or discomfort and will immediately consult a rabbit friendly vet. As prey animals, rabbits will instinctively hide signs of pain as long as they can so when it becomes obvious then they are in a very bad way. If the vet advises that the condition is untreatable and the expected quality of life is poor, then the kindest course of action is euthanasia.
