I am intrigued as to how the rabbits arrived in the Pavilion gardens.

After all, it is surrounded by busy roads and quite a distance from any open countryside.

My guess is that irresponsible owners have dumped unwanted pets here. If these are released, they run the risk of being killed by wild rabbits.

There are several ways of dealing with this. One would be to catch and neuter the rabbits and leave them where they are, or re-home them.

We used to have loads of rabbits on the Patcham roundabout and I can't recall all the bushes there disappearing.
