Out with the mud hares, in with the chalk silhouettes!
Sleaford people may begin to notice chalk-painted silhouettes of little hares springing up thanks to the '˜Hare Aware' team who aim to remind people to report illegal hare coursing to police and protect these animals.
Last year they placed mud sculptures around the town.
A spokesman for the local artists responsible said the wash-away images form this year’s campaign and decorated bigger ones will be appearing soon. “We will be doing chalk graffiti all around Sleaford and making a trail to follow the hare. The idea will be to represent with drawings the shop or business the chalk hares are outside.”
