Nyaaaaah - what's up, Doc?

OK, I never knew that rabbits could be a big urban problem. Sure, they love eating the stuff in prize gardens and they reproduce like... well, rabbits, but I figgered rats and mice and more of the vermin-level rodents would constitute a larger problem. Apparently not in Helsinki.

Helsinki aims to tackle growing rabbit MENACE

OK, so here's what they do:
"The floppy-eared fiends have been nibbling their way through some of Helsinki's most-prized city gardens, damaging footpaths as they build their burrows underground, and eating into 200,000 euros (265,000 dollars) from the parks' 12.5-million annual budget in the process."

So what are the authorities going to do about it?

"Now, the ministry of agriculture and forestry says it plans to change the law to cut the protection time in the spring and the summer when hunting is forbidden."

I hope you realize where this is going.
