How surprising :o

Did a bit of digging on this and it does seem, in general, birthrates in most countries around the globe are indeed falling or have flat-lined with the exception of several countries in South Africa.

Speaking of bunnies - there is a solution to help alleviate the situation, and that is to do what I've been doing for years.

There are a number of farms in this neck of the woods, and the main bulk of the crops include wheat and barley.

Unfortunately, the crops tend to get descimated by wood pigeon and rabbits.

I go shooting on a few of the farms round here to help out with pest control, and at this time of year shoot an abundance of the afore mentioned pests. 

Not only does this help save the farmer's crops and hence increase his yealds, but it also provides me and my family with meat to eat (yes, everything that I shoot, we eat).

We didn't have the situation that we're in now in the 60's and earlier, because many more people used to do as I do now.

Unfortunately, the P.C. brigade obviously are more influential than us people who see the damage that pests can do on a day-to-day basis as I do... 

These are quite possibly the same people who lobbied to get fox hunting banned.  Anybody who has seen first-hand (as I have) the carnage that a fox can do to a chicken coop, and to a child's pet cat, would never have agreed to such a ban.

A man of my own heart. I used to love shooting, but alas no more :( I suppose i could take it up again, but i aint paying for the privilege. It's very true what you say about foxes killing most if not all. Given enough time the fox will come back for the rest of his kill & remove them for buriel for a later date. They rarely waste food when given the chance.
