Marten teeth Farmers say that martens don't really eat the flesh of rabbits and chickens, they just sink their vampirish teeth into the victims' necks and suck out their blood. Marten teeth (detail). Fratsia 1992. Photograph © Peter B. Tzannes, 2003
Rabbit skull Domesticated rabbits are popular on Kythera for their tasty meat. Wild hare is even more delicious, but now they are quite rare on the island, and are protected from hunters by law. This skull was found at the end of a wonderful meal in Kalamos. Rabbit skull, 8 cm. Kalamos, 1995. Photograph © Peter B. Tzannes, 2003
Rat, Rattus norvegicus Old-timers say that the winter of 2003 on Kythera was the rainiest winter in memory; that must have had something to do with the rat population explosion.

Rat, Rattus norvegicus They say that rats can gnaw their way into anything. A close look at their teeth makes that entirely believable. Rat teeth (detail). Photograph © Peter B. Tzannes, 2003
