In my neck of the wood, we often have a bunny-year or a coyote-year, and they seem to roll in cycles. When the coyote population is lean, the bunnies thrive, which then feeds the coyotes well and depletes the bunnies, repeat, repeat. It doesn't seem to be a year-on year-off cycle, but this year I've not heard many coyotes, and the bunnies are rampant. So...2017 is a bunny-year. Looking back at my photos 2013 was definitely a coyote-year, I had them in my backyard. So, maybe a 5 year cycle?
