The last couple years I have noticed the fleas being real on rabbits here in Ar. The swamp rabbits usually had a few fleas but not the cotton tail. Now days there both cover up with them nasty things!!! I don't have a clue why but could sure do with out em!!!

Yea those worms were nasty looking. I didnt know wether i should eat the rabbit or not. I just tossed the rabbit back in the woods. Let a fox or something have a free dinner. I darn sure wasnt eating it.
