one of a million reasons why livestock operations at this scale should not exist. We also should not be so dependent on a couple enormous producers of food. start a small garden and buy from small local producers.

Once upon a time, canned rabbit meat was a popular protein that graced the tables for many in Kingston, Australia. Originally, rabbits were introduced to Australia by the, First Fleet, and were one of the first animals imported for food in the country. Spreading quickly across the country, a new industry was launched, and rabbits were being sold in, Sydney Australia, markets by the 1820s. Rabbits were even being entered in agricultural shows in the poultry category where breeders could showcase their best specimens and potentially win a prize.
The Longwood Preserving Company was established in 1891, in Longwood, Victoria.
On a good day this factory could turn out 4,000 cans of cooked rabbit, with meat from one and a half rabbits per can. However by 1898 the factory had closed down due to competition from the export trade in frozen rabbits. These rabbit exporters paid double the money for rabbit carcasses and sadly, the canning factory could not compete.
The rabbit meat industry continued strongly in Australia until the 1960s, when the industry almost collapsed overnight due to strong competition from the cheaper farmed, chicken meat.
Today rabbit is generally only found in higher-end butcher shops and fine dining restaurants.
