Thread: Willy's latest Burl Hunt

As bad as these these animals were, during the depression especially, they fed many families doing it hard. There was also a number of blokes who were able to buy farms paid for by them trapping and selling the meat and the fur.

The name of the family who first imported 13 rabbits from England is documented somewhere as well

Sorry Willy, but Neil and Chambezio gave me to much information. I have to respond. Neil, how about this hat? Pictures below. It's rarer than hen's teeth. Probably only one in the world in a humans possession. It's plant scar tissue from a Saguaro Cactus. Found it on a friends property about 4 years ago. It's from a section of the main trunk of the cactus that had broken off earlier in life. It healed, and after a bunch of time, upwards of 50-100 years, it protected the cactus's innards. When a Saguaro dies, the insides turn to a liquid, most of the skin just slides down the cactus ribs. Any boots or things like the hat might stay with the ribs until they decide to take a break from standing, and lay down to biodegrade into the soil. If you are lucky, and stumble onto something like that, you have a treasure. Luckily, I was on private property, but if I had found this on state or federal land, I would still have taken it before it got destroyed.

Chambezio, has that family been forgiven for that mistake?? ............ Jerry (in Tucson)thumbnail_20170615_160207.jpgthumbnail_20170615_160150.jpgthumbnail_20170615_160139.jpg

I have wondered why some clever person may take that family to court. In this day and age when the lawyers get called in before people might settle a problem them selves.

One of those early pioneers also brought foxes over to chase on horse back and be fed by eating the rabbits. Between cats, foxes, cane toads, and the list goes on nature has been buggered up and its only in recent times that through research and other study that some thing is being done to bring back the balance
