Paul223 Posted February 27, 2009 Report Share Posted February 27, 2009 (edited) Although hares can breed at any time of year you are unlikely to see young at this time, but another month or so will be a different matter. Catching up? I would imagine long nets and a few friends to drive them would be best? Best of luck with the new permission Edited February 27, 2009 by Paul223 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Baldrick Posted February 27, 2009 Report Share Posted February 27, 2009 Are you sure that you are within the law, trapping and releasing wild animals? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

al4x Posted February 27, 2009 Report Share Posted February 27, 2009 I'd just do what they are asking, and soon the next month you should be fine to get on top of them as far as leveretts are concerned. Catching and releasing is fine in principle but will cause a lot of distress to the hares so you'd need to be well equipped and while you're faffing about trying to catch them you're not doing what the landowner has asked you to do.

GW80 Posted February 27, 2009 Report Share Posted February 27, 2009 i remember watching a Johnnie Kingdom episode were one of his old poaching buddies trapped driven hares in long nets, and they then transfered them to Exmoor, i'm not sure if he had a special license or what but they done it on National TV!
