Ferreting also has a season in the U.K., it is a futile exercise to work the ferrets once the rabbits begin their breeding in spring. The ferrets will inevitably find the young rabbits underground, make a kill and feed, then curl up and fall asleep and require digging out.

I knew it, there's always a catch with these buggers...They're incredibly smart, cunning, adorable....and selfish..
LMFAO....
What they left out is, usually it's the Male who does Ferreting, when and if he 'falls asleep' or simply gets distracted, they tend to send a Bigger, Badder, Meaner 'Hob' spook him, and finish the job...Other times, they a send a 'Jill', there's contradictions as to which is better for Ferreting because of this, the 'Hob' being a hob*or boy*, if he's hungry enough, he'll eat the rabbit, and snooze, the 'Jills' tend to go after smaller prey, so, she's sent, to figuratively "Drag his lazy fuckin ass" back, hehehehehe
