Suffolk Police Version Of Hare Coursing


Recommended Posts

Shut the gate on rural crime and follow our advice on hare coursing:

 

Hare Coursing

The Hunting Act 2004 made hare coursing illegal.

Hare coursing tends to start after harvest, around the end of August or start of September when large tracts of land are left without standing crops.

Coursing is more likely to take place at dawn or dusk.

The most obvious sign is a group of vehicles parked in a rural area, perhaps by a gateway to farmland, on a grass verge, on a farm track or bridle path.

There will usually be estate cars, four wheel drives or vans. They may contain evidence of dogs inside such as muddy paw prints and dog hair.

Hare coursers often travel in convoy with vans at the front and rear containing minders.

If you see an event taking place we would advise you not to approach the participants but contact the police immediately.
