Rabbits Enjoy City
Life While Hunters
Ponder Next Move
MANSFIELD, 0.-(INS)-A small
army of rabbits have moved in on
Mansfield and declared an "open
season" on backyard vegetable
plots and lettuce patches.
Hunters are pleased with the
outlook for a banner rabbit hunt
ing season but "city farmers" are
puzzled.
Rabbits are easy to shoot . . .
but it's against the law to use fire
arms inside the city limits.
Rabbits are easy to trap . . . but
wandering cats and dogs might be
caught alio.
Rabbits are susceptible to poison
. . . but so are dogs and cats.
Meanwhile, the invaders are tak
ing nicely to city life and can be
seen almost every night playing
on lawns and rummaging in gar.
dens.
