Scavenging By Snowshoe Hares (Lepus americanus) In Yukon, Canada
Quote
Although it is difficult to relate estimates of scavenging frequency to any measure of ecological importance or mechanism, these observations at least demonstrate that the behaviour is a regular occurrence for hares, and individuals will consume carrion from a variety of different species.
Squirrels will eat baby birds and each other when times are tough. I think they’d be dumb bunnies if they just sat there until Spring and died of starvation. Although bunnies eating meat does rock my brain a bit.
This is the second time I’ve heard of bunnies eating meat. The first time was when I came across @atomicspacebunny and that’s no dumb bunny. 
Even atomic ones?
Out on a walk my dog scared a fat rabbit to jump into the path of a speeding SUV. I took it home and cooked it up, the first time we ate road kill. And now to learn rabbits are scavengers too. We’re all interconnected in a wonderful circle of life. Ashes to ashes and dust to bunnies.
Road kill critters is the best grub that can be scrounged up for dimmer…lol
I have a few co-workers who might qualify - they’re certainly not too bright. 
This is funny:
Puts a whole new meaning to eating-in and take-out? At least that squirrel got a bowl to go!
