The boys recently discovered we had a bunny and asked if they could kill it. I told them they could, but that we weren’t going to kill things just for fun and if they killed it we would eat it. Kami and I were doing dishes one morning and saw them head out with a BB gun. She said, “what if they really kill it? I said, “I’ve seen that thing take off. I think their chances are pretty slim.” Five minutes later here they were:
And so we began our lesson on the anatomy/ physiology of the rabbit. I’ll spare everyone the pictures of skinning it and cutting off feet, etc. I was pleasantly surprised how easy it was! The boys did it all as Kami and I stood by giving them moral support on what to do next😄
The finished cut meat soaking in a salt brine. We left it there for a couple of days and then made “bunny pot pie” for dinner. Tasted like chicken!😄 The boys were so proud of themselves, and I must say it was a very educational day for all of us:
