Winner of 2025's Wainwright Prize for Raising Hare, Chloe Dalton says caring for the leveret changed her life
Did you have much experience with pets or taking care of animals before you found the newborn hare?
I had very little direct experience outside childhood. My father is a diplomat so I grew up abroad. Moving around so much meant I couldn't have the dog I craved as a child. But I did have a white mouse named Napoleon and, for a while, an English spot rabbit, until he burrowed his way out of his run. But, for all my adult life I lived in the city, travelling almost constantly for my work. Pets - and animals in general - were not on my horizon at all.
When you found the newborn leveret, how did you learn to take care of it?
