hare are special as critters and great as food . when there are loads i cant resist the odd one as a pot roast or smoked biltong .much better than bunny . i have not seen one here for years , silage not hay ,if you have loads you are lucky . balance the numbers , a great resouce , better than my mice in the over winter beans , i know i could eat mickey and his pals but i dont fancy it . maybe eat some and feed some in the winter so as they dont bark the trees . they are quite big critters but 1 m tubes should keep them off small trees . bigger trees may need custom guards . a lurcher would do the job or a head shot 12 ft pound air weapon 30 metres max, or head shot .22 or above . fac weapon . snares are difficult and ethically dubious and bad for tom tiddles . i have this funny feeling to be legal you need a game licence but i may be wrong . they are not vermin like bunnies and greys ,and i was called a bunny hugger i obviously wasnt making my self clear if you have a chat with the shooters , job done i reckon .or the next few months are a chance to practice stalking skills ,30 m is very close from a hares point of view .dont let it know . thank it . head shot , then bleed it out . seems ethical to me . |
