Hare leverets in danger

.223forme

Hi all,
checking my snares yday evening and noticed the cattle were acting strangely in a corner of a field i regularly cross through (they were all huddled together with their heads low to the ground and flinching every few seconds as if something was moving in the grass) so i went up to investigate and there were 3 very young leverets (one noticeably weaker than the other two) squirming in the grass. cattle were only moved into that field in the last day or two so the grass is now well grazed down and the area around the young hares is completely trampled and they're far too young to move of their own accord. My concern is weather they will be trampled by the excited cattle or spotted by grey crows or mags now that their cover is completely gone, thats if their mother can access them to feed them with the scrum of bullocks surrounding them.
They're young enough that they're still suckling ..do ye think i should move them or try and raise them myself because it's not looking good for them atm..

Have a look at the above site, there's a bit to it and possibly a legal stance.

Found one once, seemed abandoned and another dead nearby. Put him in a box of hay beside the range to warm him up. Tried him with a 5 ml syringe of cows milk, and tiny as he was, he was able to suck the plunger down himself! Reared him to full grown and had him in a good size hutch. The saying "wild as a hare" is very true!
He escaped one evening as I was feeding him. Like a streak of lightning !
