So sad to see this Hare today in a field opposite our house Sorry if this upsets anyone.Culprit probably a bird of prey.

I had no idea there were Hares around here…would be so good if they had a safe environment instead of being raced to their death in other UK regions.

Oh, such a shame! I have seen Hares a few times in the countryside around here, but as so many houses are being built locally, I fear for their future as too many fields and woods are being built on.

Oh that is very sad, I agree with Shirley , all our woods round by us are being built on. xx

Yes,the increase in house building has certainly driven them out of their familiar environments especially during mating time.
It's the maniacs who race them to exhaustion across farmer's fields.I have become a member of the Hare Preservation trust.They have always been a favourite animal for me.

Keep this in mind too..the more houses the more traffic...the more traffic the more road kills.

And if humans would stop breeding like flies on a compost heap there would be fewer people & less need for more housing! Allowing all the immigrants doesn’t help either. Some of them don’t seem to believe in birth control. The men like to show how virile they are by fathering lots of children.
