Picked up dead along trail on hill south of Strawberry
Pool by Dr. Miller & Zoo/1/3 group about 10:30 a.m. ♂, and
another group, had come along this same trail 15-minutes
earlier and the rabbit was not there then. Apparently it had been
killed by some carnivore, which struck it on the head
& apparently right behind the ear. When Dr. Miller got to it,
the rabbit was still warm and bleeding around the
head. An examination of the stomach revealed that it was
completely filled with curdled milk, with a small amount of
fur(hairs), and some trace green grass. The tail length was
measured from the carcass after skinning.
