baw 4,360 Posted March 21, 2014 Report Share Posted March 21, 2014 gotta laugh at people googling it........ ffs even it was Normans who introduced the hare we have still had a fair seasons to hunt it.......... its general talk on a hunting forum, theres gonna be for and against on each side!! the only way to kill a hare is the way your conscience lets you.........if you can live with blasting a 12bore at the ultimate running athlete then so be it......... It all boils down to respect. The guys who say why should a hare get more respect than a rabbit, haven't a clue. When your shooting something you have no idea how admirable the thing your shooting is at avoiding being killed. No wonder these clowns can't understand why the hare deserves respect. To them, it's just another target, to us, it's the ultimate prize. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
TOMO 27,008 Posted March 21, 2014 Report Share Posted March 21, 2014 Rabbits in Spain are the same as the rest of Europe ,,,,in fact it's where rabbits are supposed to spread from,and colonised the rest of Europe ,,,, They now know the rabbit was here in roman times,,,and depending on what you read online ,,,according to the mammal society ,,,hares came here in the Iron Age ,,long befor the Romans ,,,,,,but other reports say the Romans brought them,,, But it's only 8.000 years ago we were joined to Europe ,,,,so if hares were widespread across Europe then,, perhaps they were already here 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

neems 2,406 Posted March 21, 2014 Report Share Posted March 21, 2014 gotta laugh at people googling it........ ffs even it was Normans who introduced the hare we have still had a fair seasons to hunt it.......... its general talk on a hunting forum, theres gonna be for and against on each side!! the only way to kill a hare is the way your conscience lets you.........if you can live with blasting a 12bore at the ultimate running athlete then so be it......... tbh I dont even think pheasant shootings going to last much longer once this takes off over here. It all boils down to respect. The guys who say why should a hare get more respect than a rabbit, haven't a clue. When your shooting something you have no idea how admirable the thing your shooting is at avoiding being killed. No wonder these clowns can't understand why the hare deserves respect.
