There were allegations of possible staging of some of the pictures of rabbits in the Bell case, here were clean healthy looking rabbits sitting on a pile of poo. I have rabbits that always make a pile of poo in one corner very quickly, sometimes I just switch them to another cage until I have time to scrap out the corner. I also turn my trays to avoid this problem and present a clean corner. Babies can dirty up a water crock in the flash of an eye, reason why I prefer bottles, instead of bleaching crocks all the time. Based on the Bell case I no longer blindly believe the 'Authorities' version of events, I want proof of abuse from an unbiased source. Considering what their trying to do to regulate and end breeding of any species thru APHIS any breeder should turn a more sceptical eye towards these situations, because one must always remember that it could be you next. Debe Bell was railroaded, conditions were created to make it appear worse than it was, and I truly believe pictures were staged. Her civil rights were horribly violated, on that point alone one should not be so quick to condemn her. Be careful folks, this is a really slippery slope, I may be paranoid but I also know that they are out to get us.
