EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures a moment of resilience and determination during the First World War, as women and girls from the rural community of Cheshire, England, join forces to help catch rabbits on a local farm in 1918. With the men away at the front, the women took on various roles to support the war effort and ensure the food supply for their families and communities. Rabbits, considered pests on many farms, were an important source of protein, and their numbers had increased significantly due to the absence of male farmers. The women in this image are shown working together, using a variety of methods to catch the rabbits. Some are using rabbit snares, while others are using long poles with baskets at the end to scare the rabbits into open areas. The girls in the background are seen holding rabbits that have already been caught, ready to be dispatched humanely. The scene is one of cooperation and hard work, as the women put aside their domestic duties to contribute to the larger cause of feeding their communities during wartime. The photograph is a poignant reminder of the many ways in which women and girls stepped up during the First World War to support the war effort and ensure the survival of their families and communities. It also highlights the important role that rural communities played in the war effort, as they provided essential food supplies to the military and civilians alike.
