At what point did we decide we were comparing the ratio of dog to fox attacks?
Although given the fact that Churchill doesn't believe in the reported fox attacks due to seeing a rabbit retrieve bones from a sealed coffin, I suppose any spurious and arbitrary linkages are permitted, nay even encouraged, in this Daliesque (or maybe solvent fuelled) thread.

Quite "spurious and arbitrary linkages".... as far as I can remember (and I admit I haven't and won't go back reading every line just to prove a point - but please feel free if you want to)... I haven't created any link between "sealed graves", "rabbits" and "fox attacks".

In the circumstances (headline news stories without much detail) I would have thought that the possibility of fox attack vs dog attacks would be "food for thought".
How many "alleged" and "suspected" stories turn out to be "something else".......

I have also read Taleb. His interesting insights into psychological bias are completely applicable to this thread.

Indeed

(Aside: although his books are interesting one does get the impression that "I" will be the first key to break on his keyboard )

If you had a beard you would look like a Twunt as well as talk like one.......

Errrrrrr Yeah.... but (in case you get to thinking that that was in some way a clever retort) that is just an admission that you talk like a Twunt.... Shaving your beard won't help!

Yes he does have that failing. Although if you had made a couple of fortunes in different ways you might be tempted to think there was something YOU had understood about life.

We can't discount the fact that a rabbit could have mauled the babies. carnivorous bunnies They've used the numbers argument too - rabbits outnumber cats, so it must be the rabbits chomping on the bones of the rare birds. Did the family have a pet rabbit?

Wererabbits perhaps?

Wererabbits perhaps?

Aye, the ones that dig up graves, Churchill is an expert on them.

He talks to them when they bring him bottles from the midden.

Only time will tell. But there is something fishy in the story.

The plot thickens. So you think a fish may be implicated?
