i suppose any animal would catch something that came into their territory though.
It's been the younger, dumb rabbits - at least twice that I've seen. The rabbit gets in a corner, zaps the electric, freezes up in surprise and shock and crunch, pig food. I've also seen them eat dead pigeons - I shot one that fell in with the pigs and slurp, gone.

Isn't there one of those urban myths that say a pig will eat human bodies so it makes them a great way to get rid of your victims - but beware - they don't eat false teeth!!! :pale:

Let us be lovely
And let us be kind
Let us be silly and free
It won't make us famous
It won't make us rich
But damn it how happy we'll be!
