Fencing, moats and Do Not Enter signs only go so far.
Eventually those pesky rabbits are going to get in. Utilizing
solar power and a storage battery for nocturnal operation, a
toaster big enough for a rabbit is partially buried in the
garden. A carrot bait is positioned just beneath the device
and when the rabbit crawls in to investigate, the device
quickly electrocutes it. After the required cooking period the
auto-eject mechanism distributes the beneficial ash into the
garden and resets itself.

Did the nasty rabbit eat all the veggies springing up in your garden ? So Sad. |
|

Found a drowned mole rat in the hot tub a week back.
I guess hot tubs can defend themselves, but gardens can't. |

How big a battery would you need to turn an average rabbit to ash ? |
|

Unknown, but probably a few. Nice to keep it all solar and
green but a grid hookup seems likely. |

I have a rabbit in my garden, it's actually very cute. I don't
think the kids would like it toasted. |
|
|
This is a waste of rabbits, which can be quite tasty. |

Toasted rabbit is rather crispy, isn't it. Grilled is probably
tastier and can be achieved by shortening the cook time. |
|
|
Casseroled is best, in red wine, with garlic and shallots. |
|
|
Rather than incineration, a pot of seasoned red wine and a powerful heater would be ideal. |
|
|
Presumably the fur would float to the top and be skimmed off ; however, a quick spray of burning gasoline prior to cooking would burn off the fur too. |
|
|
Serious question: If rabbits are a serious problem and/or eating your food crops why not trap and eat them? |
|
|
//a pot of seasoned red wine and a powerful heater

|
|
Yes, apart from the fact that said rabbit would (and
who could blame it?) tend to defaecate into said
wine
before the boiling took effect. Overmore, there are
good reasons why people gut and draw animals
before cooking them. And morefurther, this would
be a waste of perfectly drinkable red wine. |
|
|
Wasn't there a Lady of Shallots ? Wonder what she felt about rabbits. |
|
|
// why not trap and eat them? // |
|
|
Sadly, another individual is involved who is aware of the
problem but who does not wish to see an actual dead animal.
I chose this invention over the Intrusive Garden Rabbit
Relocation Catapult (yet to be posted). |
