Jack Russell terriers are bred to ground small rodents such as rabbits, gophers, rats etc. They kill and bring them to you because it is in their nature to do so. The dog is well bred apparently

It is in their nature because farmers in the past and probably present day use terriers to clean their barns of rats.

They were originally bred to fox hunt and so they have very strong hunting instincts. All these traits provide them with the ability to dig and chase rodents, rabbits, and foxes.
