Hare Coursing

The Frome Rural Neighbourhood Policing Team has recently received reports of suspicious behaviour that may indicate illegal hare coursing activity in the area.

Hare coursing is a criminal offence in which dogs are used to chase, catch, and kill hares. It is a cruel act against wildlife and is often linked to other serious crimes, including theft, criminal damage, intimidation, and violence.

We urge members of the public to continue reporting any suspicious activity. Your information helps us develop intelligence-led patrol plans and take targeted action to disrupt and prevent this illegal behaviour.

If you witness anything concerning, please report it via 999, 101 or anonymously through Crimestoppers.
