Description

A fantastic collection of memories and stories from times gone by to the present day, all with the experience of feral rabbits as their common thread. This book has grown from the overwhelming response ABC Local Radio received to a competition they ran for rabbit stories, which flooded in from listeners young and old. A fascinating insight into life on the land, from the people who have lived it. Great Australian Rabbit Stories is a collection of memories about the rabbit: from its devastating effect on the Australian landscape to the industry it generated for trappers and buyers alike. There are stories from the farmers who tirelessly fought this furry foe, from the scientists who searched desperately for a way to control the ever-growing population, and from a multitude of others whose lives collided with that of our country's greatest pest.
