| Online entry 1km square survey Postcard survey Landowner's questionnaire | Help us to record hares!
There are a number of ways in which you can help us to record the whereabouts
and numbers of the hares in our area. Enter your sightings online 
Entering your sightings of hares online
is perhaps the easiest way to send
us the details of what you see if you have access to the internet.
Send your sightings by post
If you would prefer to send in details of your hare sightings by post, then
we have a couple of ways in which you can do that. You can download
and print a leaflet from this site which you can post back to us, or
you can use our survey postcards.
The annual 1km square survey This is the most 'formal' technique we use to monitor our hares. It uses a standard 'transect' methodology in sample 1 km squares. If you would like to take part in this you will be assigned a square which you must survey for hares for two hours in Spring. Further details . Landowner's questionnaire We are very keen to hear from farmers and other landowners who are interested in the hares on their land. A particularly valuable contribution can be made by those farmers and landowners who would be prepared to complete an annual questionnaire about the numbers of hares on their land. It's simple to complete and by repeating the questionnaire annually, you can make a really valuable contribution to our understanding of Brown Hare population trends in our area. Further details . Spread the word! We need as many people to contribute records to this project as possible, so please tell all your friends about it! |
We
cater both for people who just want to contribute occasional sightings and those
who want to get more involved
