I was taught the cervical dislocation method for my mice when I was a "tween" and have used it ever since. It is the method I'm most comfortable with and I had a "rabbit wringer" built when I started my meat rabbit adventure 4 years ago


I have used the "Swedish method" (stun on front of skull and bleed out and the one used in most abattoirs) on some of our livestock that needed to be emergency euthanized but I'm not a fan of cutting the jugular and the blood splattering - especially if there are death throes


Pellet guns with enough velocity to humanely dispatch a 5 pound rabbit require a firearms permit to own in Ontario Canada so that isn't an option for me - even if I did have such a liscense they are also pretty expensive on this side of the border and I doubt I'd invest in one just to dispatch rabbits
