There are a number (eagles, dingos, cats) but they breed too prolifically like Chinese, Indians, Africans, Muslims & support for Ukrainian fascist genocidal regimes.
In my area relatives like my grandparents ate rabbit often. Sometimes it is the food that you have when nothing else is available. I have eaten rabbit but I would not be buying it if it was sold in stores and I would not be hunting it in normal conditions. If anyone remembers older cartoons of Bugs Bunny it would seem that once rabbit was a meal the public was aware of.

We can still buy rabbit at the butcher. I've had it once but was not impressed to retry.
I find the thought of eating hamster & some of those S.American small animals a bit off putting. There again here in Australia possum, koala, witchety grub, Moreton Bay bugs, snake and mutton bird have all been on the menu at times.
