The only thing that can be done is do a massive rescue. Have rescues all over the country divide up bunnies to take. Not sure who takes care of island but once the bunnies are all saved, put up cameras and anyone else who gets caught dumping them then they should be put in jail. This makes me sick to my stomach. I hate to see bunnies and any other animals dumped. It’s so cruel.

Hey Lorelei, i have a bunny she appeared in ur video(reacting to my subscriber's bunnies habitat) So the problem is she doesn't drink water , she tosses her water bowl when we encourage her to drink water and it's so hot here in India so I'm scared that she'll be dehydrated so suggest me something pls!

I picked up my rabbit when she was a baby from here. She was very hurt and full of parasites. 7 years on and she lives a life of luxury in downtown Vancouver. She’s the sweetest most gentle soul, could not even be considered feral. My heart breaks for all her brothers and sisters who didn’t get so lucky.

It's been an ongoing problem in Victoria and Vancouver for decades. Other locations that have or have had feral-domestic rabbit populations are the universities and the hospitals. Details differ, but the stereotypical scenario is that someone is given a pet rabbit while in long-term care or attending classes then has no where to keep it when they leave. Since winters here are pretty mild, released animals have a decent survival rate. There was a big cull in the late '90s when they trapped and relocated several hundred rabbits; one estimate suggested a population over 700 at the Victoria General Hospital alone. Aside from the harm to the rabbits, the big fear is that having rabbit populations in the cities is a draw for predators, especially cougars.

Thank you for showing this and linking to Rabbitats and VRRA. I live in Vancouver and have only been to Jericho once because it's heartbreaking. People are so unbelievably naive and clueless. The one time I was there, aside from people feeding rabbits food that isn't the best for them, there are those who think its funny to let their dog or kids chase the rabbits, and others who make the typical "that would be a tasty dinner" joke. It's awful. As far as I'm aware the city has mostly turned a blind eye to it. But I'm like you, I have no clue what the solution would be. There's too many for rescues to help, and even if they captured them all, you still haven't gotten to the root issue, which is people dumping them to begin with

The town I live in had a feral cat problem, still does to a degree. One thing that helps is a catch, neuter/spay vaccinate, and release. Also foxes and hawks help, but not in a good way, my cat came home after escaping once with deep gashes like a hawk had gotten him but he fought free. With populations like that an aggressive program is all that helps. Also, adopting the kits can help, my cat was the kitten of a feral that was socialized young and trusted people, but still escaped outdoors whenever he could.

I have an idea. Turn it into a petting zoo. First, set up a quick temporary fence. Then build a permanent fence around it so all the bunnies are enclosed in a safe area. Then, colony by colony catch, spay/neuter and treat injuries and release back to their territory in the enclosure. Vets would have to come on board to help with cost. Volunteers could set up appropriate shelters inside the enclosure. Have feeding stations at each colony location. Build paths and benches along the paths. Hire folks to monitor the gate during open hours and people pay to go inside and pay for treats to give to the bunnies. People could come, sit, pet and feed the bunnies under supervision. For protection from predators, I used to have two guarding dogs that ran loose 24/7 on my farm and they were 100 safe with the rabbits and often hung out in the bunny yard when the bunnies were outside

One of my rabbits is a rescue who was dumped around this area and was picked up and dropped off at VRRA. The biggest obstacle to housing these rabbits is, well, housing them - VRRA is bursting at the seams. Rabbitats has a cool idea (building rabbit colonies to house lots of rabbits) but as always it requires money and land (which is very expensive in Vancouver).

I think trapping, fixing and adopting would be a good answer. Maybe a bunny rescue team or organization could be started? ♥️♥️♥️ Even rescuing a few would help, and if they came to you for food, they really are hungry, but they probably aren't as feral as you think. Second best would be something along TNR but I didn't know if in that kind of situation they need their hormones to survive. House Rabbit Society probably would be a great bunch of people to ask.

My first idea upon watching this was to figure out an idea of some sort of larger scale rabbit sanctuary that doesn't just block off the beach from being visited normally too? But then that way in time there could be potential for proper care for the rabbits while still allowing them to live as they normally would since they are now feral domestic breed bunnies they just would have all the proper food, water, and shelter hopefully.

I`ve seen rats climbing into under carriages of vehicles for warmth in the winter. Racoons foraging for food, skunks on lawns of houses, coyotes running across Hwy 99 in a pack of four. We share the earth with them.

A few years ago I visited Canada, mainly BC. We also went to a place called Canmore, Alberta where the fields were filled with hundreds of domestic bunnies. In fact when we first arrived we saw 3 baby buns and thought they'd escaped from someones house but when we asked a local they told us that years ago someone abandoned a pair of non- neutered/spayed domestic rabbits thinking they'd get eaten by foxes or coyotes. The rabbits actually survived though and populated the whole of Canmore with their offspring. And to think all of it could've been avoided if those owners had rehomed the original 2 buns.

I understand these buns becoming accustomed to the wild because it’s all that they know, but they would live much more fulfilling and healthy lives being indoors. I think we could really do something about this!

This reminds me of UVic, in the end there were so many rabbits on the campus the rabbits started expanding their territory, invading homes and farms around the university and further spread around the region to the point that the government stepped in to capture and "relocate" the bunnies to many non-local resident's dismay. "Oh, they're so cute, why do you have to take them away." those who don't live there said.

Thanks for illuminating the desperate plight of the poor Jericho Beach Buns. I suppose the only solution that has any chance of success would be TNR - but the overwhelmed local rabbit sanctuaries wouldn't be able to fund it, and the City of Vancouver is not likely to try - as the double standard permeates City Hall. BC doesn't even have a vet school, so a shortage of vets is another one of our problems - and those few we have are burning out. A massive Trap, Neuter, Vaccinate and Release program would probably stall on that sticking point alone - unless vets from the rest of the continent volunteered their time. The whole situation is just heartbreaking. Thank you so much for caring.

places here like jericho and richmond that are overrun with ferals descended from dumped pets are so heartbreaking. as someone who lives here and is fostering for VRRA and has volunteered for rabbitats, they are already truly bursting at the seams and always, always at capacity and struggling just to be able to take care of all the buns they already have. as much as everyone in the local vancouver rabbit community wants desperately to help the feral colonies, without a real initiative or support from the government, it's simply not feasible for the rescues to handle on their own :( for starters, it should be made illegal to be dumping any kind of domesticated animal outside, period. some cities in north america have been trying this and i think it's a great start.

I just stumbled on this video. It’s simple. Vancouver has one of the largest homeless populations in Canada. With how fast rabbits reproduce…. you can feed every homeless person indefinitely with this renewable food source

People will feed the bunnies no matter what. If they HAVE to feed them (which they already are) instead of putting up ‘don’t feed the bunny’ signs, work with the city to change the signs to give information on what bunnies CAN eat. Because some people might think they’re helping the bunnies by feeding them, but they will feed them something harmful. Because people feel the need to be dum and ignore the sign and feed them anyway, make sure they’re feeding them the right things or nothing at all.

First of all, welcome to Canada, specifically, the BC province. Sencondly, it is quite sad that domastic rabbits, just like other domesticated animals, get dumped by owners who just don't know how to handle their pets, or simply being ignorant. There are quite a few of us here who are helping those bunnies, I suggest visiting a local charity called Rabbitats in Richmond and perhaps get some more insight there.

Nothing new in canada. Back in the day, there was a hospital in victoria on vancouver island that was famous for its rabbits hopping all over the place. That was like 40 years ago though. No idea if its still there or not.
