September 8: Rabbit tomb

An eerie find in a small burrow on the north-west featherbed. This rabbit seems to have died in it's burrow and somehow  evaded the eye of the Skuas and Giant Petrels who ordinarily would have ripped carrion such as this to pieces.
Finds like this are the only traces of bunnies left on Macca, after being declared pest free.
