<p>My girlfriend was walking the dogs this am when she came across what she thought was a road kill rabbit. One of the dogs ran over to the "dead" rabbit and tried to take a bite out of the stomach. The rabbit screamed and hobbled off! So the rabbit wasn't dead just critically injured.</p> <p>I wasn't there, but if I was I would of wanted to put it out of it's pain. How would I do this most effectively? I do not routinely carry a knife or a gun (illegal in the UK)</p> <p><hr></p> <p><strong>Hardly anyone is actually answering the question</strong> (How to humanely kill an injured rabbit?), I didn't ask for advice with what to do with the rabbit, I asked how to <strong>kill it</strong>. </p> <p>I think the scenario is maybe confused everyone, this rabbit was injured but I was also referring to a hunting scenario, hence the tag <a href="/questions/tagged/hunting" class="post-tag" title="show questions tagged 'hunting'" rel="tag">hunting</a> . </p>
