Record Rabbit Harvest in 24 hours

[piddy3825]

I don't know if this is TLD record, but I just managed to snare no less than 8 rabbits overnight and then 2 the next morning again giving me 10 harvests within a 24 hour period on Jackrabbit Island.

I saturation planted 8 snares on either side of the boulder where the corpse is resting, for a total of 16 planted snares and managed to catch 4 on each side the first night.  It took almost the entire day to harvest these little critters and by the time I thought to take pictures of my bounty, the weather had set in making these pics not the best..

I did remove the snares prior to harvest, so what you are looking at here are the carcasses.  5 out 16 snares were "ruined"  so those were also removed.  As it was nearing dusk I decided to stay one more night, I left the remaining snares in place and spent another night in the cabin. The next morning I discovered two more rabbits bringing my 24 hour total to 10 rabbits.  

Each Rabbit yielded an average of 1.3kg of meat and at roughly 450 or calories to the kg, the harvest yielded close to 6000 calories.

Not bad for 24 hours of wabbit hunting!

Rabbits generate in the morning, with dawn (so the wiki says). A few times I came to the snares in the morning and see 2 out of 4 full with rabbits. I start taking skins and while I take skins - other empty snares also fill up with rabbits and I end up with harvesting all the snares succesfully. This happened more than once, harvesting of rabbit in the morning sometimes triggers other snares.

I'm not sure that the Wiki is always correct. AFAIK it's a best effort by the community.
