Details for Hare
- Hare
Hares are fast-running mammals belonging to the genus Lepus, closely related to rabbits but typically larger, with longer ears, and longer hind legs. They are found across diverse habitats worldwide, including Europe. The European Hare (Lepus europaeus) is common across Europe, weighing 2.5-6 kg (5.5-13 lbs). Unlike rabbits, hares are born precocial (furry and with open eyes) and do not live in burrows, instead resting in shallow depressions called 'forms'. They are primarily herbivores, feeding on grasses and other vegetation. Hares are known for their incredible speed and evasive maneuvers when pursued.
