lies, damned lies and statistics

So I keep a record of what I shoot and as I have been getting bored at work I have been practicing my work with spreadsheets. The joy of vlookup and pivot tables. Really must get to grip with if statements.
Anyway over the last 2.1/2 years my stats come out as,
Rats 4%
Rabbits 91%
Fox 3%
Deer 1%
The rats are likely to go down unless I find somewhere local to go shooting them.
Fox are likely to go up and overtake rats as I have been called out to deal with more of those recently.
Rabbits will come down a bit because there just don't seem to be the numbers. Certainly seems to be more myxie on the ground this year. However it is predominantly rabbiting I do so I cannot see it going much lower than 85%.
Deer will probably remain constant or low. I shoot for the pot and we do not have many deer on site. Well one less than last week, Whoohoo.
There will be more useless and boring facts when I decide I need more practice. Possibly a percentage breakdown by year?
