Snaring a rabbit should be quite quick if done correctly and usually the hunter is in the near vicinity to deal with rabbit quickly ,i.e break it's neck

Being riddled with buckshot and taking days to die should not happen only careless hunters do that .I wouldn't use buckshot for a fox anyway totally inappropriate ,rifle everytime .Shotguns are for pheasants,rabbits and ducks which are collected quickly by a good dog and if not already dead made dead quickly by the huntsman .
I agree the legislation is flawed ,but that is no reason to repeal it,every reason to look closely at it and improve it
