Introducing the Rabbit.
The Lake Wakatipu Mail of April 2G, 1865, said: ‘‘lt is proposed by the in- I habitants of this town to purchase from j Messrs. Burn and McConochie a dozen rabbits, and turn them out in two favourable sites on the Lake, provided the miners and others will give them one year's fair play before hunting or shooting them.

There will also be offered a reward under the provisions of the Game Protection Act, in the event of anyone destroying any of them during the above period . .
