Close Season For Hare Shooting

EDM number 15 in 2012-13, proposed by Adrian Sanders on 09/05/2012.
Categorised under the topic of Animal welfare.

That this House deplores the shooting of hares throughout their breeding season as cruel and unnecessary; notes that in Scotland the brown hare and mountain hare now have close seasons to protect nursing mothers and their dependent young; and calls on the Government to confer similar protection on these icons of the British countryside.
