If I were a local, I would open a new restaurant offering rabbit as a delicacy. That would fix those rascally rabbits!

If they can succeed in eradicating the rabbits they should certainly do so. They need to get the rats and mice too. An eradication program was successful on New Zealand's Campbell Island, so there's no reason why it can't be similarly successful on Macquerie Island.

So why don’t they load up some rabbit pellets with birth control medication instead of whining? They’ve been watching the increase for sometime. As for the mice and rats, put out rat poison.

Sounds like this is one case where Jimmy Carter might actually be of some use.

No worries, mate! When the polar ice caps melts, the polar bears will swim over and eat the bunnies!! Three cheers for global warming!

Test first to see if penguins are affected, and if not, for the mice, bubonic plague, tulemaria for the rabbits.

(I would suggest weasels, martins, and fox, but they would turn on the penguins once they ran out of mice and rabbits.)

Got to love Australia. It is never unemployment, scandal, massacres, terrorists. Always some little animal taking over the place.

Glanznig called on Canberra to take control of the island from the Tasmanian government to put an end to the plague.

Yeah, that's the ticket! Replace small government with BIG GOVERNMENT!

This cannot be a true story.

Only humans can damage the environment.

Animals are natural and organic.

The rabbits, which were introduced by sealers in the 1870s but until recently had been kept in check by cats...

The carnivorous mice ate the cats?

Well bring back the cats. They work for free.

They need to import several thousand Burmese Pythons. That should take care of the rabbits.

They should import a few coyotes. That’d take care of the rabbits AND the mice.
