It’s good to see that our Scandinavian friends have found an alternative fuel source to non-renewable fossil fuels. They burn rabbits.
That brings back some memories, like my childhood camping trip with the boy scouts where we gathered around the flaming moose and roasted marshmallows. Add some chocolate and graham crackers and you can make smoores, a tasty treat.
Good times.
:rolleyes:
WTF? “Protection of wild rabbits”? :eek: It’s not as if rabbits are a particularly endangered species. Last time I checked, those critters used to breed like… wait for it… rabbits (ka-ching!)
My sister was bit by a moose once.
No! Really?
<<rim shot>>
I’m a tad baffled if only by trying to imagine what people say or think while shoveling animals through a blast furnace.
“Whats that smell?”
“Burned hare…”
“Yours or mine…?”
“No, you dolt! Burned… Hare…!”
Reading sign on the side of the machine
“Heat With KONVEX or Live In A KONCAVE”
“Hasenpfeffer…! Hasenpfeffer…! Sis! Boom! Bah!
Toss ‘em In! Light Em’ Up! Rah! Rah! Rah!”
This is two/tree year old news and it’s about carcasses of dead animals, including rabbits, are used (but I think they have stopped using rabbits because of a general outcry against burning or rotting (to get biogas) those little cutsie bunnies) to heat up houses. I just wonder if those who cried out really think it’s better to just incinerate them without letting the biomass come to a good use, but incinerated they are.
The background to the rabbit part is that some parts of Stockholm with surrounding municipalities are outright pestered with feral rabbits without any natural predators and a couple of years ago the authorities launched a project to cull them, which was very needed. During a couple of years you cold walk around in parks without seeing much of those tailless rats, but now they are increasing in numbers again.
