Farmers west of Cardiff are under siege as illegal hare coursing escalates, with dogs chasing hares causing smashed gates, destroyed crops, and threats to farmers—some now barricading fields with logs and concrete. The Vale of Glamorgan sees a spike in these raids, fueled by easy road access and quick escapes. Damage includes ruined fields, smashed vehicles, and mounting financial and emotional strain. Police are ramping up patrols, testing drones and license plate tech, and eyeing rural crime units, while farmers urge reporting to build a stronger case. Authorities suspect links to gambling and organized crime, though local investigations are still underway.
