197 - Those Wild Rabbits

This week, Steve and Michael hop along to Bruce Munday's place to learn how "those wild rabbits" have thumped their way through Australia's history. We hear about good intentions, cute furriness, very effective teeth and claws, the trail of damage to this land and its native species, and finally a turning of the tables as we begin to win. Bruce's book, Those Wild Rabbits, is out now through Wakefield Press. This week, the SA Drink Of The Week is from Coriole Wines Michael will try to stump us, virtually, with IS IT NEWS on the topic of rabbits. In 100 Weeks Ago we hear from Samela Harris, lover of penguins and many native animals. And in the musical pilgrimage ... our musical curator has dusted off a fantastic song we played a few years ago because it was the most perfect song for tonight; house rabbit blues.
