Season 3[]

Hickory and his rabbits lived peaceful lives in Redstone until elil were attracted to the warren and were hunting for the rabbits living there. During this time, General Woundwort and Vervain (under the alias of Wheatstock and Chaff respectively), arrived there and, under the guise of helping them, attempted to turn Redstone into a warren controlled by force and not reason.

At first, Hickory was taken in by Woundwort's guise and it wasn't until it was too late that he found out the truth. Thanks to a bargain he made with Cowslip, who wanted revenge on his deserters, Woundwort tricked Hickory and the others rabbits at Redstone to stay put while their warren gets demolished by man, but Hazel and the others saved them in time. Hickory was reunited with Marigold, and they all now live with Hazel and the others on Watership Down.
