Spring brings warmer conditions and fresh vegetation, but it can also lead to an increase in rabbit breeding and activity.

Have you noticed any changes in rabbit numbers or damage in your area?

You may be seeing:

• More rabbits appearing around dawn or dusk
• Fresh droppings or digging
• New or active burrows
• Closely grazed pasture
• Damage to seedlings, young trees or garden plants
• Increased activity around fence lines, shelter belts or sheds

Share your general location and what you have observed. Are rabbit numbers increasing, staying about the same or appearing lower than last spring?

Reports from landowners, farmers, contractors and local communities can help others recognise where rabbit pressure may be building and where early action could be needed.
