Bunnies taking toll on cars at Denver airport

DENVER (AP) — silly rabbits.

The furry creatures are wreaking havoc on cars parked at Denver International Airport, eating wire candle and other wiring.

To stop the problem, the Federal Wildlife workers are removing at least 100 rabbits a month while fencing installation companies better parking and build perches for predator hawks and eagles.

Airport spokesman that Coale Laura says that out of 4.3 million parking transactions in 2012, three requests were submitted for rodents or rabbit damage and no one has lodged a complaint for towing.

KCNC-TV (http://tinyurl.com/awjoyne) reports that there is another way to stop the damage that can cost thousands of dollars to repair.

Mechanics say the wire coating with Fox or coyote urine can steal the rabbits of their appetite. Fox urine can be purchased at many stores.
