Where a hare has been lying, a shallow depression is made, which is a bit deeper and wider at the back than at the front. This is known as a 'form'. They are often made in the shelter of a grass tussock or a rock which will give some protection from the wind.

Brown hares can run incredibly fast, up to 45 miles per hour, although this is saved for escape and they generally lope along at a much more leisurely pace.

Have spent many days tracking down Brown Hares in the border pastures. I can confirm that they run incredibly fast, up to 45 miles per hour, although this is saved for escape and they generally lope along at a much more leisurely pace.
