"With their wild glare, swift turn of foot and secretive nature, hares h…ave long been a symbol of our sweeping, open countryside and it is always thrilling to spot a hare in the wild. A favourite subject of artists and writers, hares have held significance in British culture and folklore for centuries, from Druidic associations with spring to the Easter Bunny and Lewis Carroll's mad March Hare. Focussing on our two British species - the Brown Hare and its relatives the Mountain Hare and Irish Hare - Nancy Jennings uses up-to-date research to offer insights into the lives of these enigmatic animals, covering their biology, evolution, habitats and behaviour, including their famous 'boxing' rituals, and reveals why this almost mythical animal of hill and meadow is so sensitive to the changes we make to age-old farming landscapes." Chapters include:- Meet the hares; Evolution and adaptations; Relatives around the world; The lives of hares; Breeding machines; Growing up fast; Eat or be eaten; Conservation of hares; Humans and hares; Folklore and art; How to see hares. .
