Park Animals for London 



mammals than the squirrels, but rabbits also are 

 very amusing and attractive, and although bounds 

 would necessarily have to be set to their ram- 

 blings, there are surely several places where a 

 good imitation of a natural rabbit warren — not a 

 mere small enclosure as in Hyde Park — could be 

 arranged, and probably a few hares would also 

 thrive. 



We must continue to look to the more in- 

 offensive rodents if we want to diversify our 

 London parks with mammalian life other than 

 that of the scarcely harmless and often unneces- 

 sary cat.
