Our cilantro-loving rabbit has been permanently deterred.
I hate that, but I blame it on the fox pair that didn't step up. Or the hawks/vultures that scour our place but didn't pick off the bunny. I'd much rather the natural order take care of things, predator/prey-wise. So I'm going to plant more dill, a few other herbs, and continue sowing beans for the next 3 weeks. I've started sprouts in the past few days and am reaping the benefits from today - alfalfa, tomorrow lentil sprouts, the next day bean and chickpea sprouts. Lots of protein, mmm!

How did you guys take care of the rabbit? Living here in the close in suburbs, we're not allowed to do anything to wildlife. Live traps are even against the law unless you are a pro. Do you live somewhere where you can just shoot it?

A few days ago, a number of UK newspapers reported how a Badger had entered a house via the cat flap and had stolen food from the fridge.
Prior to this video he had opened the fridge and helped himself to half a dozen eggs. When the house owner heard a repeat raid in progress he was greeted with the following scene:
