    My grandfather tolled me, you could sell a living rabbit for butchering, go to the butcher to buy a dead rabbit and make a profit in the process.

      Yup, they needed as much meat as they could get so they made it profitable. They didn’t let people buy back everything though, one or two carcasses per person. Most people traded them in for chickens because that meant more food.
