Blessing in Disguise for Rabbit Industry in New Zealand
A St Louis Globe Democrat report notes a new phase in rabbit export from New Zealand where freezing and shipping rabbits to foreign markets could create a major industry. An exporter reportedly handles 15,000 to 20,000 rabbits daily, pays high wages, and ships 1,900 boxes weekly. Estimated exports last year reached 700,000 rabbits with potential to rise to 1,300,000 this year, bringing large earnings to trappers and the colony through freight and sales at Geenta prices.
