  Hare Hunting
Hares do not 'go to ground' as such, but if they take shelter in the roots of a tree, drain or other such places of cover, they may be flushed out, given 'law' (head start) and re-hunted.
The brown coat of the hare enables it to blend with the ground, and a hare may lie in a 'form' or 'couch' (a shallow scrape in the ground) until a hound is practically on top of it.
Hares when young are vulnerable, therefore the mother spreads them out in different areas, and when going to feed them sets off in different directions, checking and double checking before going to her young.

 Beagling - an introduction
Hares are very common in most parts of Britain, yet they are very seldom seen, leading some misguided people to believe that they are a rare and even endangered species.
Hares do not move around very much during the daytime - you are most likely to see them when they are feeding in early morning or late evening.
In this case, either the hare will be seen by either a follower or whipper-in, who will communicate this to the huntsman, or else the hounds will pick up the scent trail left by the departing hare.
