Rabbit is one of the primary proteins to farm for survivalists because they require so little space to raise. The problem is, they are so darn cute. My dad had stories about his survival training where his squadron was held prisoner in wicker cages and at the end of it, they released them and brought them a rabbit to cook. He couldn’t eat it after seeing it alive, so he traded his share of rabbit to another guy for his pemmican bar. He was raised on a farm where they killed their own chickens and hogs, but that rabbit got to his sensitive spot. 😁

So the next thing for survivalists to do is breed a kind of ugly rabbit that one does not mind killing. For Rabbit is truly tasty!!

I was in Italy and saw the rabbits they raise for the table.

I was expecting ugly, piebald, mangy looking things but they were fluffy bunnies no different from pets, only meatier.

I’m glad there are professionals acting as intermediaries.
