    Ferreting is a dieing art, great to see there is still some lads at it. My uncle used to tell me about the guys that came over to the island I live on ferreting for the skins in the 60s and 70s. But after the ban on sales of fur in the UK it killed the ferreting and mole trade

    • @sheepshepherd

    Hi Glyn , great video of Ned the Ferret helping reduce the number of Rabbits in your area. The beginning of the video with your dad and the Ferret was very funny. Glad that you had a successful day with the Rabbit hunt. I'm sure catching the Rabbits felt really good for you after spraining your Ankle awhile back on the Rabbit hole. Great way to end the video with your dad holding the Ferret in one hand and a Rabbit in the other.

    I remember when I was about 13 I went to visit a friend who lived in the countryside and here dad took us rabbiting with ferrets.... it was really exciting and we had rabbit for dinner. I never knew that this was a thing...
    I remember we had to go back the next day to catch a ferret that decided it didn't want to come out. Apparently it was probably having baby rabbits for dinner.
    I did not find any of it traumatising, in fact it gave me respect for the job of farmers and land owners keeping pests under control. Im in Australia and the rabbits have a devastating impact on our land.

  • @ianking-jv4hg
    @ianking-jv4hg 10 місяців тому

    The nets catch 8 rabbits,
    the ferret scares the rabbits into the nets.
    If the ferret catches a rabbit,
    it eats the rabbit and goes to sleep down the hole, so if you want your ferret back, you gotta dig em up outta the rabbit hole.
    Ferrets are good at scarring rabbits into the nets.
