Squillions on Merri Creek. You do still have to vaccinate pet bunnies though for myxo & calicivirus. The viruses are destroyed by cooking. As are liver flukes, tapeworm and other parasites etc. that infest wild rabbit populations. Just don't eat rabbit tartare. And wash hands & tools THOROUGHLY after preparing raw wild bunny. Just a rinse won't do.
