Dave RamsayThe area’s ongoing rabbit problem will be the focus of the Alexandra Lions Club’s Great Easter Bunny Hunt, taking place over Easter. Organisers are pleased they can finally host the event again following a three-year hiatus. Convener Dave Ramsay said the Bunny Hunt would now be held over two nights instead of 24 hours, from 8am Friday April 2 to noon on Easter Sunday. "We have had great assistance from the equestrian club and they have made everything nice and tidy for us." The last hunt was held in 2017, when a team from Rangiora shot 875 of the 7601 rabbits killed.
