I am disappointed not only in the University’s approach to this conundrum, but the community for abandoning these animals and then turning it around on them by referring to them as “pests”. These animals are victims of humanity and
the intelligent, moral thing to do is to accept our responsibility in this and come up with a solution to humanely
and non-lethally rectify what we humans have done. The population of rabbits currently on campus is so
high because the University let it get to this point. How could an institution that hands out degrees in
Biology not foresee this coming? It’s ridiculous. This quick fix of a proposed cull is not the answer
because reliable sources can tell you that they have done that on campus in the past to keep things at bay,
yet clearly this has not had a long-term sustainable effect. You cannot keep the population of bunnies at a
manageable level without a sterilization plan in place. This has been successfully accomplished elsewhere.
The University needs to be more stringent in their message to the public about not dumping pets on
campus. The fear tactics they have used in the past are an embarrassment to this “higher learning”
institution. In an attempt to skew the public’s perception of these misunderstood animals, the University
has published blatant lies about the bunnies “spreading disease” and “causing tetanus from bites”. These
claims are beyond ludicrous and are insulting to the community’s intelligence.

We've all heard the "rabbit stew" jokes, so please don't bother. It's neither original or funny.
