THE INDIAN HARE 



The only small ground game are hares, for there are no 

 rabbits in India. The Indian hare is much smaller than 

 the English beast. They are to be met with almost every- 

 where in open rocky ground or scrub. On being started 

 they bolt much the same as rabbits, and require quick 

 snap-shooting. Like the Indian fox a pretty little silver- 

 white creature with black tips to their brush they afford 

 excellent coursing with Persian greyhounds.
