LB City College attempts to control overgrown rabbit population
2010-03-26 ·  By  Editor
Everything Long Beach

Historically, there is a surge in the number of rabbits abandoned at Long BeachCityCollege’s (LBCC) Liberal Arts Campus (LAC) each Easter season.  Hundreds of domesticated rabbits have been abandoned on campus in recent years which has created a host of problems, especially for the rabbits who have been released into the wild when they should be cared for as pets.

“People are under the false impression that LBCC is a safe haven for rabbits so they tend to drop them off when they are no longer wanted as family pets,” said Jacque Olson, a LBCC employee who has provided care for the rabbits for years.  She continued, “Unfortunately, the rabbits live in unsafe conditions and are injured and preyed upon by predators because they were bred to be pets.”

The College is trying to raise awareness of this issue to prevent others from abandoning their pets on campus.  Signs are being installed and campus police officers will begin enforcing local codes that subject anyone who abandons an animal to a $500 fine.

No....you aren't any different from the rest of us.....it's just that Ptarmy's hatred of bunnies has made a lasting impression on those of us who know his opinions regarding bunnies.  :-)

Was it not Australia that had a horrid problem with wild rabbits in the past.?

Was it not TEXAS that had or still has a bunny bopping days when the poor dears are hit up side the head with a base ball bat.?

I just once made the mistake of picking up a pet rabbit from the front and the hind legs of those critters are dangerous.

I went to Catholic college.  A small private one.  One year there was an absolute explosion of cats on campus.  There were hundreds all living around the cafeteria.  They were sick looking and there were poor little kittens just everywhere.  One of the priest had the job of rounding them up and killing them all.  I can't remember if he had to drown them or broke their necks.  What a sucky job that had to have been though.
All the great things are simple, and many can be expressed in a single word: freedom, justice, honor, duty, mercy, hope.
