Rabbits, for sure! They are such cuties
Rabbits love them!❤
Bunny Rabbits
Rabbits💓💓💓💓💕💞💗
Rabbits all the way 🥰🥰
Someone said that the way to tell the difference between a rabbit and a hare is that a hare looks like they are constantly plagued with knowledge of a bad future.
Lol I was about say,hares look like they have pstd
Yeah i saw watership down too. *shivers*
"Hares look like they are burdened with the gift of prophecy."
Ah, they're Millenials
😂😂😂😂
The diference is this:
Rabbits: Hello friend, you will eat this lettuce?
Hares: The trees are quiet because the rocks are listening.
Love this!!!
I keep seeing this quote! Where is it from?
@@kaarinapolly2293
It was a comic strip that circulated on social media som years ago.
A hare has stared into the abyss for too long and a rabbit's eyes are still innocent
Hares built for survival, while rabbits adopted cuteness to survive.
Cottontails are tough. They manage to survive in Houston's Hermann Park where they have very little time to forage do the high pedestrian traffic and being surrounded by busy streets and light rail.
Not cute enough for Chinese peoples
Rabbits look normal. They look exactly how you expect a rabbit to look. Hares look like they've seen too much.
Because they have. Once you have seen most of your family eaten, you would have those eyes too.. Unless you are rabbit, that is..
😂 true
I have wild rabbits by my apartment. My Dutch rabbit goes by the patio door and he and the wild rabbits always look at each other for a decent amount of time. I think it's absolutely adorable.
I think yo rabbit owes them something
How is it a wild rabbit if the rabbit lives in your aparment?
@@buKzone The wild rabbits live by her apartment, as in outside. The rabbit she owns is domestic. That's how I read it anyway.
They will give your bunny bad habits.
🎉
Hares always strike me as looking like a wild animal meant for survival and bunnies more like domesticated... fascinating how different they are.
Hare meat tends to be a bit tougher and tastes more gamey than domestic rabbit meat.
@@iymspartacus7089 yes, that is true of a turkey ( wild ) since the exercise the legs by running and foraging for 5-18 miles per day or more. The dark meat is too tuff for my eating.
@@iymspartacus7089 that’s with all animals smart ass
To me, the most significant difference between rabbits and hares is the fact that hares are born ready to run, with fully developed brains, their eyes open, covered in fur and with teeth and claws. These babies are pretty much ready to take care of themselves as soon as they're dry, while rabbits are much more similar to rats, mice and other den-dwelling rodents whose kits are completely helpless for close to two weeks. Helpless babies are very often born to social animals who live in families or tribes, where there are two dedicated parents and/or multiple related adults around to help their mothers care for them. All the research I've seen indicates hares tend to be territorial loners and almost never live in groups in the wild, so fully developed kits help assure the survival of the species.
Longer gestational periods - especially in small animals - tend to produce babies born ready to run, which often indicates their mother is on her own with no familial support system, so bears 100% of the responsibility of caring for her offspring. Of course there are exceptions, including many small cat species, which are loners and seldom live in groups in the wild yet still produce litters of extremely dependent kittens who have no defense mechanisms other than staying hidden for several weeks. It's believed small cats do not live in groups, but the undeveloped state of newborn kittens has always made me wonder if small feline species might live in groups of related breeding females in the wild and help one another care for and protect their babies, especially since this mothering style has been seen in feral domestic cat groups; perhaps we just haven't documented this behavior in the wild yet.
And of course lions raise their cubs together, so what you're saying doesn't seem like too much of a stretch! Thank you for an intelligent and interesting comment :)
One is a small cute fluffy animal , the other is a wizard who suffered a mishap.
🤣
Y’all I rescued a Craigslist bunny from Arizona… I’m like 90% sure she’s at least half jackrabbit 💀💀
No such thing as half-jackrabbit. So it could be one. But since it doesn’t seem to be the real deal, it could be a cottontail, which is a different species and genus from both hares and domesticated rabbits 🐰
There is a huge hare population where I live, and there is always 1+ hares on my lawn.
They seem to leave my flowers and plants alone, and while they munch on the grass, they do no damage at all.
I love sitting on my porch in the evenings and watching them come around.
BTW, they sleep during the day and are active in the evenings.
My favorite rabbit moment happened a couple years ago. I was outside, indulging in a bad habit, when I saw a hawk descend right on a rabbit before my eyes. The rabbit wasn't killed though, it did the most amazing backflip and kicked the hawk in the face. I know he/she kicked it because the hawk's head jilted backwards. It was the most ninja move I have ever seen an animal make. It did a backflip and kicked a hawk in the face. I can't tell you just how amazed I was to see it. It was awesome. I wish I caught it on video to prove it.
Stop smoking fentanyl.
Are you sure, or was it just the bad habit?
✌️🤪👍 🐇🦅
I’ve seen hawks successfully get one right in my suburban front yard. I’ve also seen them yank squirrels right off of a power line, and dive bomb birds at my bird feeder. Regular Nat. Geo. documentary in my backyard.
Them dam rabbit claws are like razor blades.🤠
That rabbit hit that hawk with a flash kick god damn
If your pet hare runs away, is that HARE LOSS ? 🐇
Which is why you should never let your hare down.
omg omg i love it. an easy and natural joke to joke, yet, i’d have not thought of such delightful silliness😅 then thank you for thinking of it!
Did that happen to you too?
Now let’s not start splitting hares.
😂
I work at an SPCA in my area and we recently had a young girl bring in a wild baby hare thinking it was a domestic rabbit. She had it for a few days and was planning on keeping it with her rabbit! She brought it in because it was covered in ticks and she didn’t want it around her other pets. I’ve been bringing the hare back and forth to work with me as none of the other workers are familiar with rabbits or hares and it’s not quite old enough to be weaned. We are now trying to figure out a way to successfully release it. Thank you for making this video! This information is definitely needed to prevent people from interfering with wildlife!
Omg. What have you been feeding it? How is it doing now? Did you contact a wildlife rehabilitation expert on hares?
Is yours unionized?
@@dubistverrueckt I was feeding it goat milk, alfalfa hay and leafy greens under the recommendation of a vet who worked with wildlife. Sadly, the only certified wildlife officers/rehabbers we have on the island where I live, are 2-3 hours away. We had contacted them previously regarding wildlife that had been brought in and they would tell us to to either release it or they would offer to come euthanize the animal. We did consult with a vet who is on our board of directors and they recommended an area for us to release him once we knew he was stable enough to be on his own and before he became accustomed to humans. He was released about a week ago and was happy to be back in the wild!
I have learnt something new today.
I must admit that I had always thought of hares just as a wild feral type of rabbit, but I see that they are very different animals instead.
Seems like even more than wolves vs dogs because they can mate with eachother. Crazy!
@@AKMackle That's because dogs are wolves that got domesticated and then changed to our needs which did not happen very long ago in reality. It's mostly crazy how humans managed to deform the wolf to so many idiotic forms in such a short amount of time.
As someone once said:
Bunnies are cute puffballs, Hares are wilderness prohpets that wer insane with the knowledge of the universe whispered in their ears by the gods
I learned a lot; I have always been curious about the rabbit/hare relationship, good, and surprising, info. I didn't realize how far apart they were genetically.
Lagomorphs are probably my favorite verity of animals in the same group because you have sweet baby (rabbits) on one end and insane forest mage (hares) on the other. Pikas are somewhere in the middle.
Me too!!!
i lived in West Texas where the jack rabbits are abundant. Got a dog. A hunting/tracker dog even. A Texas Blue Lacy. He loved to try to chase the jack rabbits. Finally one day he sorta like, seemed to come to a learning or a realization, in a doggie way, that was never gonna catch and eat one. hahaha. So instead, he would give initial chase thereafter, and then quickly give up and sit and watch them run circles around him. 😅 Best dog I ever had.
Lacey dogs are the best. Great combo of the best parts of the hounds and the heelers. Smarts of a herding dog, persistence of a hound. And they are just a traditional working unofficial breed. If it looks like a lacy and has the smarts to be one, then it is one.
BTW, I have no idea where the term "lacy" came from. Do you know? I have heard it might be from German.
I had never heard of that breed, so I just looked them up, absolutely beautiful. I’m from Texas and would definitely love to own the official state dog but I feel like a dog like that needs real physical work to be happy. I can do long walks, but, other than that, I would not have any real work to keep them stimulated. Unless I’m wrong, I’m praying I’m wrong. Do you have any feedback? What a beautiful breed.
@@mattlawson714yessir they are so dang pretty agreed. Yessir you are fully right. They are active and must have some work to do. Ranch or hunting being the best, as it is their instinct. In rural Texas, they use them as “hog dogs” hunting in packs to hunt down thos pesky invasive destructive wild hogs in TX and elsewhere. Switching to feedback- my story- my dog. A very good dog he was. Pre-trained, very well trained by the original owner. Trained to track downed deer. But I am a city-dweller. Only go out to the West TX to hunt a few times a year. So he lived in my apartment with me. It was hard, but again, he was very, very very well trained! Sit, stay, heel, kennel commands, all of it. But caution! Caution I must warn! This breed can be a violent and aggressive breed if not immediately properly trained from the beginning!!!! But also, fortunately, I was able to make it work because next to my apartment in WTX there was a huge, huge golf course that we would go on each day to run around and chase rabbits and such. And in Houston next to my apartment there is a huge urban forest that we would go hike in and I just let him go free and enjoy himself. Very good. But they HAVE to be trained properly from the BEGINNING. All caps is always annoying, I grant you, haha, but I cannot stress it enough. If you do not kennel train them to make their kennel their safe cave while you are away at work during the day, they WILL tear up your house or apartment. Training is never never never cruel. 100% opposite. And I have major anger issues against the idiots in the world who think that correcting a dog’s bad behavior is somehow cruel. You know the type I am sure!😅 Anyways, again, it can work if you are a city person. But yes, they HAVE to have work. They HAVE to have socialization and correct training, from the beginning! Ok well, good luck out there, fellow internet stranger!
@@mattlawson714 there are also some great online resources of owners’ forums or fellow Lacy owners communicating online. Very good resources to learn about owning one if you want. City owners and rural owners, breed risks, training tips, et cetera. It is such rare breed that it is not “officially recognized” by the big boys at the official AKA association. Hahaha… so Lacy owners had to make their own, independent, Blue Lacy Owners’ Association. This will also be an excellent resource to learn more. And again, good luck!
@@mattlawson714 yes and also a good guard dog too! As said previously can be aggressive if not immediately and regularly correctly trained. I mean, their instinct is to take down hogs, violently, and to herd cattle, after all. Haha so yes, a good guard dog to. Mine had a couple of incidents against other dogs, but not against people. Was always generally accepting of people. And always growled when someone knocked at my door, friend or foe. Ok welp, that is sooooo much feedback, I got too excited on telling my story maybe. But, there it is, haha. Much to consider! And a great breed when handled correctly.
I see a strong similarity between a hare and a kangaroo. I know they aren’t related at all, but I see a lot of similarities, aside from the tail.
specifically when it’s running!
We agree!
lol, my first thought about hares was
"Man.. they look Australian!"
i mean they are both Mammals so there is that.
kangaroo is a giant hare.
You have helped me improve my rabbit care, so thank you! Also, lennon is so cute!
One thing that has amazed me about hares is how well they appear to have adapted to urban areas because I often see the white-tailed jackrabbit in Calgary (a city of 1.3 million). They appear to be used to humans as I often watch them forage for minutes before they run off. However, I have never seen a cottontail in the city, but my parents have seen them running through their backyard in Lethbridge to the south. I enjoy watching both immensely since my current residence doesn't allow pets and they remind me of my old rabbits.
there are areas with a feral rabbit population around the city.
He looks like hes able to summon the cthulhu and know all the Elder Gods secrets
I love them both and pikas too!!! Ever since I was a girl I loved rabbits and hares and when I learned about lagomorphs I can't dislike any of them. This was such a cute video!
I had no idea how different they were. Great video! Very educational!
Every bunny was kong fu fighting 🥷
Rabbits are fluffy skippy balls while hares are slim muscular runners
After learning some differences, I think I overall prefer hares. I very much enjoy the idea that female hares basically challenge males to a boxing match to see if they're tough enough to mate with.
I've seen cottontails jumping around her courtors taking only the champion.
I love hares in the wild. Seeing them run in that special way. Wild rabbits are not particularly exiting. But I love them as pets. Have known a couple of great personalities.
We have a few rabbits in our garden the odd time,love to see them but they dont do too much,just munch,munch,munch!
The hares look like they are constantly reliving wartime flashbacks.
The way I've always been able to tell is that hares are the stretched version of rabbits lol (at least visually) I didn't know they were so genetically different that's so cool to know!
We had an extra credit assignment in Ag-Science class to take care of a rabbit for the whole year and show it at the fair. It was awesome because if you had good grades you could keep your rabbit in class with you, I'd always keep him in my jacket so his head would be out the top. Everybody taking part would also eat lunch with our baby rabbits as we'd get the little salad bowels that came with lunch and have the rabbits eat beside us.
High school?
That’s how Covid started
What happened after that year with the rabbit?
🍖
@@jannetteberends8730
This is the year of the rabbit
IVE BEEN WATCHING YOUR VIDEOS ALL DAY AN DNPW MY DAY IS MADE WITH A NEW VIDEO, I LOVE YOUR VIDEOS SO MUCH
I Love Both!!
A hare stares wildly, as if it's just met Cluthulu.
I like them both. I live in the sandhills of New Mexico where we have plenty of both to enjoy watching in the wild. I had never been around an abundance of hares before I lived here. It is clear watching them both how different they are. The hares (jackrabbits) remind me more of antelopes than they do cute rodent-like creatures. Huge things!
That’s because they are not rodents. As Lorelei mentions rabbits, hares and pikas form the mammalian Order Lagomorpha. Rodents like mice, rats, squirrels and capybaras form the order Rodentia. Lagomorphs are strict herbivores with hindgut fermentation of cellulose. Rodents are mostly omnivores with unspecified digestive systems. Lagomorphs are also genetically much closer to Primates than to Rodentia.
I knew they were different taxonomically and genetically but that was about it. Sort of like knowing that crocs & gators and crows & raven look similar but are completely different.
Thanks, it's always cool to learn new stuff.
Sorry for the correction but crows and ravens are the same species. Large crows are called raven.
"Tortoise can tell you more about the road than hares." - Khalil Gibran
They’re both so cute! I raised both at one time. The wild bunbun chews through everything. They don’t like to be contained. They’re loving when you raised them as a baby. But as they grow, they chew on their cages all night until they get out.
There is no difference, they both taste very good.
So would you, to the right animal. Stick to eating puppies and kittens.
And that's why you go to the shady looking carneceria. I get to keep my Spanish skills in shape and get some "conejo" cheap. They also have mutton for dirt cheap this time of year. 20 years ago I discovered that mutton chops are dirt cheap in late June and early July. I have eaten mutton on the 4th of July twelve of the last twenty years.
Accurate in what you said, however there are 2 other differences that you did not cover, the hare has red meat whereas the rabbit has white meat. The range of a Hare can be up to 50Km or 30 miles but the rabbits range is only around 1Km 0.6 mile.
I had no idea baby wabbits were called Kits!!! We always called ‘em Baby Bunnyboos!!!!
I prefer rabbits (domesticated ones) to snuggle with, obviously, but hares are much more fun to draw! Their dramatic elongated shapes are wonderful to exaggerate for stylised art. So yes, keep your domestic bunnies close to you in your nice warm home, where they need to be, and appreciate hares stretching and contorting thrmselves as they sprint, making use of their wide open spaces, from a respectful distance as art models :)
Easy to tell them apart. Hares look like rabbits if the rabbit was on crack cocaine.
Thank you for the interesting video. I enjoyed learning more about both rabbits and hares. I was born in a Rabbit year (1951), so I have a bit more affinity for rabbits than hares, I guess. Several commenters have mentioned Watership Down, and I have to add my praise to theirs - it's one of my favorite books of all time.

Hi Lennon and Lorelai👋 My home is a safe zone for rabbits and hares! Here in central Florida we have cotton tails. They are protected in my yard. I have a free roaming bun named Cocoa inside. He is a silver fox and 5 years old. Thank you for these informative vids❤❤🐰✌
Ever since I was a young boy I loved Hares, in fact they are the reason why I like Rabbits. If I could have a pet Hare I would. They are just badass with those massive legs and ears. They remind me of a mini Kangaroo. Just imagining walking that thing in lease makes it all worthwhile. Either way I love lop bunny Gambit.
There is a awesome video on CZcams of a man introducing a rabbit to the hare, very interesting. Rabbit: do do do do I'm curious, I'm looking around, OH HI HARE! Hare: *awkwardly sits in corner giving the rabbit a stare down and when rabbit gets too close... ATTACK!!!!!!!!!*
"Couldn't be more different" continues to describe that they're the same family
Rabbits: "Do you fancy some tea in my cozy cottage?"
Hares: "WHERE'Z MY CRACK!!!"
Thank you so much for all the advice and knowledge you have given me for my bunny. (thumper) you have helped us so much
I love both, in fact, I’m slightly obsessed with them 🐇🐰🐇🐰🐇🐰🐇🐰🐇🐰🐇 (please ignore my handle, cats come second 😅). However, hares are more fascinating IMO whereas bunnies are pure cuteness and love ❤
“These two different species can’t even mate with each other”
Well… yeah… that’s the definition of two different species…
Tiger and lion and horse and donkey.
I once knew a Hare that wore a Hair piece named Harry. 😊😅😂
I love you lennon for everything i just wanna thank you for changing my life and my rabbit's life because of you my bunnies are Freeroam i have three bunnies Elsa milo and Cleo❤❤❤😊
I love them both! In the spring we have a hare or two that hang around our yard. I have 3 rabbits of my own and I absolutely adore them! 🥰
Before one of my youth baseball games, someone had lost a ball over the fence during warm-ups. After warm-ups, we still had time before the game to go look for it in the tall weeds. As we kicked the weeds around, one of my teammates either kicked, or kicked near to a jackrabbit. We saw it leap, and after it landed there was a trail of dust like a cartoon. 50 mph is definitely believable,
The kid that dislodged the hare was stunned, so he didn't know it was there.
Put a hat on a hare,, that's a harestyle
Great video😯👍 My first time being introduced to rabbits and hares was when I was a kid in Nigeria in the 2000s. I remember watching the Watership Down movie and also reading a kids novel about a hare and both of these were what made me aware of both of their habits. Really cool stuff.
I read that book when I was little and will never forget it! Didn’t expect so much violence from the cute little rabbits lol. I only saw the film recently
@@tshoneycocoa I hear you. After watching the movie in Nigeria years ago, I finally managed to get the book and read it in 2017 and it was great and even better than the movie but also quite violent in many ways.
Cottontails like the burrows of packrats and prairie dogs.
They will dig a small pit below a shade plant or artificial
shade and face outward away from the center of the plant.
In hard times both jack rabbits and cottontails will dig
down and eat the roots of grasses.
A hair looks like it’s in the mist of a horrific war unlike anything the world has ever seen, and a rabbit looks like it needs to pick groceries up at 12
totally thought they could hybridize. Did not know that they could not! Interesting. Also, I prefer neither. I am more partial to the jackelope.😅
This was very interesting! There's so much I didn't know about hares. I didn't even know just how big a difference they have in contrast to rabbits =^-^=
Both rabbit and hare will make a delicious soup!
A rabbit will direct you to the nearest police station. A hare will mug you in broad daylight.
Thanks really interesting. I love Rabbits. My colleague was a little offended when I complimented her Rabbit necklace. “It’s a Hare”. I think Hares are taken more seriously than Rabbits lol but definitely bunnies are my favourite. Still, Hares are in decline here in the UK which saddens me they’re beautiful creatures.
A lot of native things are in decline in the UK.
I just wanna give you and Lennon a BIG THANK YOU! 🐰 Not long ago, Sailormoon's lil baby sister Cleo passed. (At this rate you might recognize me, because of the buns names) She passed on Feb. 24th this year....and quite frankly I still miss her a ton. Sailormoon and I have bonded greatly since then due to her loneliness from the loss of Cleo. ♥️ But I still had school through March-May, so I adopted her a new friend, Jupiter. Ive only had him for three days, but gosh, I love him to death! (Despite peeing on my fresh bed sheets, lmao) he's a New Zealand White bun bun. Thank you once again. Without your channel, I would've never given Cleo the comfort of indoor life, or have adopted instead of shopped. Ly so much girl! Keep being creative and caring, as your inspiration has no limits!!! 🐇🍌💖
I am sorry to hear, may your bunny rest in peace, and what a coincidence that my birthday was at the 24th February, and I'm currently 24 ish, but that's besides the point, sorry for your loss.
@@GothremenBhasonAww, tysm. Cleo will forever live inside Sailormoon's heart and mine, too 💖 My birthday is also on the 24th, just March instead of February.
@@galactadoodlez that's curious, I hope you the best of luck with your bunnies, you seem like a good bunny owner
@@GothremenBhason thank you :D it's good to hear, considering I'm not quite an adult yet lol
@@galactadoodlez maturity isn't always defined by age, caring for any pet is a big responsibility, because they living and breathing creatures and Bunnies surely need a unique care, thanks to Lorelei and Lennon we have a good source of education and we can trust her guidance, I don't own a bunny, but I tried her methods for barely a month when my aunt gave me one (she was breeding them, like the old fashioned folks) so i gave her the best I could for my ability, it breaks my heart that my father demanded that I return her to my auntie, especially when I started having a bond with her, she was clearly comfortable with me only whenever I placed her on my lap, for an hour, giving her rubs, and kisses, but it was quite the experience, so I'll get a bunny in the future once I'm settled.
Rabbits are inocent, Hares have seen some stuff😂
Hares have perpetual "I just secretly witnessed a murder" face
highly informative and delivered well! love it! thanks for the videos. to answer your question, I have no preference myself, Rabbits look cuter but Hares look way more energetic and active which makes me love them more so I guess I like them both equally for different reason...I'd never take a rabbit for a pet though, sounds like raising a gold fish, boring and gives no fulfillment haha but maybe I'm wrong or it's just a personal feeling.
Lorelai I think your videos are awesome and I think Lennon is so cute
I think it is awesome that we have decided to keep rabbits as pets and allow them to become a real friend for us to domesticate and have around as we do. Hares are pretty incredible but you have to remember that we can only have them as pets if we domesticate them as babies and keep them as pets as long as we have them. Wow! How great is that!!! I love it! ❤
I've been watching u for the past 2 years making sure I was ready for bunnies and today I got 2 baby bunnies and they are soooooo cute
Hi! I’m 13 and I have a Holland lopped rabbit. His name is clover, and he is turning 2 this month and my parents want to keep him in a “hutch outside” but I despise hutches and I’ve told them that there is indeed a difference between domestic rabbits and wild rabbits. He stays in my room with a litter box, plenty of water, unlimited hay, and good enrichment. But my parents say “he will be happier in a hutch outside with the fresh air” but that’s not true at all because summers get hot and winters get cold where I live, and not to mention there are lots of predators. I really need help on what to say to convince them that I will get an air purifier, and bunny proof my room so he will chew no more chords. I love your channel and Lennon is so sweet 🥰 I really hope you can help me because you are my last hope!!!!
Tell your parents THEY would be happier outside with more fresh air,lol
@@lazyhomebody1356Um, no, from what they said they have bad weather conditions in the summer/winter, and rabbits can either be killed from predators or have a heart attack from the threat of a predator, so it doesn't matter if the rabbit is safe, it can still get parasites or die from a heart attack.
@@galactadoodlez I mean, the parents should be made to live outside
I might have a bit of advice... I'll tell you what I can, as I suffered the same issue when I was 11. (I am now 14) It took me forever to convince my mom, but I finally did it, and hopefully you can, too. Tell your parents that you are at a responsible and reasonable age to handle the matenince of a bunny. Keep telling them you'll bunny proof, and second off, tell them that rabbits are social creatures that need love and a solid, affectionate relationship with the owner, and can't fend off predators or parasites too well on its own outside. (Bless Clover's little heart, my god) weather conditions can cause heat strokes, hypothermia, nausea, frostbite, etc. Ticks and fleas are in season right now as well, so Clover has a risk of getting a sickness for that too. Clover will feel safer and more confident if he continues to live indoors, not to mention, he won't be lonely and can establish an even stronger relationship with you. And if your parents don't take this then I'm sorry, I did what I could!!! (Good luck to you and lil baby Clover, I'm rooting for you!!! You can do it!!! ❤)
@@lazyhomebody1356 Ooohhhh my bad I read that wrong sorry!!! :(
So, rabbits are the cute cuddly ones and hares are the cranked out ones offering you “tea.” Good video. Learned a lot.
Hares with thousand yard stare: "I've seen things you Rabbits wouldn't believe..."
The hare is like the rabbits awkward gangly cousin with the crazy eyes.
Great video !
If they're both lagomorphs, then they actually *could* be more genetically distant.
I just got my rabbit today her name is cotton tale
They both taste so good!
1st 🥳💕✨ I love bunnies 🥳👍🏻💕✨
산토끼는 강인하게 생겼다😁 어떤 토끼든 모두 건강하고 행복하길!

If it looks post rehab: bunny
Rabbits and hares actually can interbreed, but such couplings are *_RARE_* and they seldom make a *_HABIT_* of it.

This was a fun video! I prefer rabbits and hope to have one for a pet someday, but I think hares are beautiful animals! 🐇
I also prefer rabbits they taste much better.
Thank you for another wonderful video I have never really seen the differences between them until now. You can make a video on the similarities
They got one thing in common they both taste pretty good.
I believe that somewhere deep in my mind, my little rabbit is a pseudo hare. Hares were important to the ancient Celts, and it would seem the eyedropper of Celt in me retains genetic memory of sacred Hares, just as it does for the tangled wildwoods and natural springs. lol.
thank you / calmly and quietly presented
Female hares boxing a mate to test their strength I feel that lol that’s smart.
great thing about Colorado, where I have lived, is that you can see both at the same time in the Rocky foothills.
This is a question I've been asking myself for years now
I love to see my cottontails around in winter , we finally had a pair produce young this year. Only wish I'd see some snowshoe hares as I did years ago here in north Wisconsin.
I have a domesticated rabbit and a hare free roaming in the house..And unlike what you'd expect, the hare has been the cute, affectionate and playful one. He potty-trained himself, sleeps with our dogs and learned how to trade kisses for treats.
Very informative video I had no idea on how they look different.
Hares look ready to run. Rabbits look ready for Easter
