This pheumonia-like illness can be transmitted through contact with raw rabbit meat or by eating meat that hasnt been cooked thoroughly. There is no need for this to prevent you from enjoying wild rabbit, though. Just wear latex kitchen gloves when handling the meat, and be sure to cook it well. Look for rabbit to be prepared in all the ways chicken is, baked, braised, stewed, sauteed, roasted. Among the many flavors that complement it are dried fruits, olives, mustard, rosemary, and bourbon.
