Lunga Black Rabbits

When I was on Lunga in the group of islands known as the Treshnish Isles off the west coast of Mull a few weeks ago. I noticed some lovely pure black rabbits. These are apparently descendants of the original domestic rabbits kept on the island by he residents for food many years ago. Now feral these feed on the grasses and wild flowers and are quite at ease with the visitors to Lunga providing they don’t get to close.

 

I spent a few minutes getting some images of these beautiful animals.
