You could brine it to tone it down a bit or marinate in milk does a similar thing and tenderizes as well.

Gadgetman is right, Dougie...soak in salt and water for a while say three hours should do it. To test the age of the Hare, rip its ear (after its demise of course! they find the act very disturbing if they are alive!!!)...if it rips easily then it is a young one...old ones usually have a lighter fur colour and longer nails and often tatty ears.
