Despite the offer from a Stoney Nation man to take over 2,000 rabbits onto his land on the Stoney Indian Reserve, the planned cull of Canmore’s feral rabbits is expected to move forward.
Canmore Mayor Ron Casey says the proposed solution won’t work, because the province prohibits the release of non-native species to multiply.
Canmore council has already approved a contract to trap and euthanize the rabbits within the next two weeks but the door remains open for a non-profit group to propose a relocation program.
