    hares caught as rabbits. There are lots of small animals around this place. There are very big woods so a lot of them lives about here. There are plenty of rabbits to be found around here and they do great harm to the crops especially the oats and other seeds. Small animals live on grass like rabbits and hares. Foxes do great to the fowl if they could get into them they could take every one of them
