Casualty
Many of the rabbits in the Yorkshire dales are afflicted with myxomatosis, a disease which can lead to blindness. You'll often run across the animals which have been clubbed to death by landowners and farmers. The clubbing is seen as a merciful act which prevents the blind rabbit from starving to death.
