I imagine it's not worth the cost. There isn't that much meat to be had and the bodies would have to be processed quickly or kept alive to prevent spoilage. The agency in charge of all of this probably lacks the equipment to do any of this, assuming it would be cost beneficial to do it in the first place.
- jimbokun 17y agoThis is the problem that hunting solves. Issue licenses to allow people who enjoy the sport and like to eat small game to go out and harvest some number of animals. You get the population reduction, and the people who enjoy it get to eat wild game. You control the amount of animals harvested by the number of licenses issued (and some expenses for enforcement, but there are people willing to do that job for not much pay). Seems more sensible than rounding the animals up en-masse and dumping them in an incinerator.

- jimbokun 17y agoGood point.
- jules 17y agoThere isn't much meat to be had from chickens either. I'm sure there are butchers who wouldn't mind free rabbits, because now they pay for them.
