main disadvantage of the method is that there may be differential digestion of species. The method was used in this study to compare the proportions of plant species in the faeces of rabbits with the proportions of the food-plants available to the rabbits. In this way, the food preferences of rabbits on the dunes of Holkham National Nature Reserve were estimated. Comment is made on the seasonal variations in the diet of rabbits.
