Just found this 'hare raising' story; ITN, itn.co.uk, Updated: 23/07/2010 11:13 Real hare interrupts greyhound race Race watchers in Australia got a surprise when a real hare ran onto a greyhound racing track. The animal confused the dogs that were forced to choose between chasing their regular fake target or a real animal. The bizarre incident happened at Shepparton racecourse in Victoria as the dogs went round a bend. Greyhound number 4, known as 'Ginny Lou' left the track to chase the large hare instead of the lure, which is an artificial hare. "It is a very, very rare occasion that a real bunny will jump onto the track as we've seen just then," said the race commentator. Stewards annulled the race and returned 32,000 Australian dollars (£18,500) to people who had placed bets.
