 She fears us, okay. Now if this were a live rabbit, if this were a real rabbit she'd have both feet clamped onto the head and I would go in, I would dispatch the rabbit quickly so I'd take the neck in my glove and quickly pull its legs so it doesn't suffer. Then I've got two choices. If I want to carry on hunting I need to get her off of it without giving her too much food so I do a trade. If we were finished for the day I want her to associate catching rabbit to be good news. I would open up, while she's on the head, I'd open up this stomach wall, pull it up, put my hand in, all the guts and everything go away leaving the liver, the kidneys and the heart and then I'd sit and help her eat it maybe for 20 minutes until she's really full up of lovely fresh warm rabbit and then I'll trade her off it, okay. So remember I can't, if I go to take it off I watch what she does. Look, I don't want her to associate me with stealing from her because she will never hunt with me again. If she did hunt one day she'll catch a rat that she can carry. As I get close to her she'll try and drag it away. So I need her to trust me so you go in low and slow, okay. Do you see her defending it? I've got her food now she's focused on that. I can cover up the rabbit. She's still attached. She's got one foot locked on. I've got to get her slowly to release that foot. Can you see that? Right, that's it. So now she's traded off. If she sees this rabbit now it's not the same rabbit. It was only the same rabbit when she had continuous sight of it. Now it's just another rabbit. If I don't let her catch it she might be teased off with me but she won't know, won't think I robbed her. And that fair exchange which is no robbery as we know means that now we could go on hunting. Well I've given her a little bit more food than I would normally give her. We can carry on hunting and I can trade her off of as many as I need to. I don't normally multi-kill. Normally if she catches one occasionally on the forest when we're hunting on the forest we have caught as many as five in a day with one bird. But really it's not about killing rabbits it's about her having success. And it's worth also saying that every rabbit that you can join us now rabbit you did very well. No you wouldn't, you're actually right. It would have been more entertaining for us though and the winging would have, the whining would have stopped a lot quicker as well I think. One of the beauties and not all I ever spend a lot of time defending hunting because you're on a sticky wicket really. But every rabbit she catches is ready to be caught. So maybe seven out of every ten rabbits will beat her depending on the time of year. A good rabbit that knows it's territory will always do your bird if it's fair as it should do because it's a fair, fair test if you like. So the rabbits that she's catching are the rabbits that natural selection has decided it's their time. But also if she doesn't catch a rabbit I still have to feed her one. You know she has to eat meat so something has to die every day for her to survive. Same as that buzzard that we saw come over. The sheer fact it's there meant something died today. It's a fact of life. And I'd rather it was I didn't advocate responsibility for where the meat that she caught came from. I'd rather it was meat that I know is free-range and organic and has every opportunity to get away. The other thing is it is a true natural test between the two that has been going on for millennia. We don't help them in any way shape or form. In fact I'd go as far as to say that we are more of a hindrance in terms of their hunting ability. Yeah noisy footstep wrong place at the wrong time. Getting her you know she's hunting off the fist a warren you can bet your life is standing in the wrong place you know the rabbit knows where you are it'll come out the wrong hole it'll come out when you look in the other direction. So it's very difficult actually to catch quarry but it is the most exciting thing to see them really turn on the after but it's the difference between her flying to that lure and her flying to you was significant and yet she knows that's a look. You factor in a rabbit and the the intensity is fantastic. You did very very well rabbit okay despite all the whining you did very very well indeed apart from the fact I'm not sure you let go instantly I didn't I think you thought you're gonna get further didn't you really? Yes you can I tell you what we'll do we'll get halfway and then we'll transfer to you because she's a lot heavier than the bird you had okay so I'm gonna put the reason I've got you to roll your sleeve down is you know I said they never bite you she's got a lot she is just adorable look at her. See her lunging and grip. That's a nice and tight ball gun.
