The variety of cottontails we have here are so small they aren't worth hunting. The numbers aren't good, either. We used to have lots of them, and jacks, but back in the '70's, the feds did a lot of work to increase the numbers of raptors. We have plenty of hawks and eagles but not that many rabbits.
You know what they say, "When you got lemons....".
Old rancher lady said chicken hawks taste like, you guessed it- chicken.
