Re: odd eats for pets!!!

Wow...I guess I should worry.   She doesn't get these often and she seemed
to live on rabbits until she took up with us.  In fact, my garden "rabbit
problem" is GONE.  I haven't seen a rabbit in our yard since she came.  I
wonder what animals in the wild do?  While wolves and coyotes usually feast
on rodents, especially rabbit, they also will eat larger, weaker animals. 
Wonder what makes the difference in what they can digest?
