Coursing is the pursuit of game or other animals by dogs—chiefly Greyhounds and other sight hounds— running by sight, not by scent. Coursing was a common hunting technique practiced by nobility with Greyhounds and by commoners with Lurchers.
Animals coursed include hares, rabbits, foxes and red deer. Jackrabbits are coursed in America. Coursing in the UK is usually undertaken with one or two dogs, but coursing in America is done with three.
A competitive version has been developed since the first set of English rules for hare coursing was drawn up in the reign of Elizabeth I. The object is to test the dog, not to kill the hare, and today in Ireland (but not in Great Britain or America) the dogs are muzzled.
