Two young does we rescued from the meat truck last night. For those who don't know what a meat truck is. Its a truck that shows up at the 4H shows and gives the kids $8.00 per rabbit for slaughter.

That's sad and horrible

I'm glad a few we're at least saved. Rabbit are used for meat but they shouldn't be treated this way!
