Rabbit meat is one of the worst meats for nutrition, along with squirrels. You can actually starve while ingesting it
Ain't that that truth! I remember back then it was nothing to shoot 25 - 30 jacks in a day - especially around the Post/Paulina areas. There was a near repeat of the 70's populations for a few years in the early 90's in Eastern Oregon. I am however seeing a lot more cottentails recently and I have a small but thriving population on my property and on a recent outing toward Fort Rock I saw lots of tracks in the snow wherever I stopped. This was in the area of Fort Rock south of Hwy 31.I don't think we'll ever see the good shooting we had in the 70's, but on an "up" year, the action can be hot and heavy.
Really ?

Protein poisoning is a form of acute malnutrition caused by excess consumption of any lean meat (e.g., rabbit) coupled with a lack of other sources of nutrients usually in combination with other stressors, such as severe cold or dry environment. Symptoms include diarrhea, headache, fatigue, low blood pressure and heart rate, and a vague discomfort and hunger that can only be satisfied by consumption of fat or carbohydrates.

Although protein poisoning is possible if rabbit were your sole dietary intake, saying "Rabbit meat is one of the worst meats for nutrition" is simply not the case.
