Warning: Rabbit food made in Utah possibly contaminated, linked to 500+ deaths

SALT LAKE CITY – Warning. If you feed your rabbits this local food, stop right now.

The Utah Department of Agriculture and Food is also strongly urging owners not to eat the rabbits if they have had this food.

Officials said “Commercial Rabbit” made by Cache Commodities of Ogden may be tainted and could be linked to the deaths of more than 500 rabbits since May.

Authorities are testing for contamination and will announce when it is safe to use the feed again.

Utah Dept. of Agriculture officials said producers should bury or incinerate rabbits that died so other predatory animals do not get exposed.

I know we have some bunny parents here. This sounds quite serious.
