The snowshoe hare changes its fur to white in the winter, and back to brown (with a white underbelly in the summer. If it is an outdoor rabbit, it can get sunburn, if it's black, its fur will turn a brown color, it isn't really dangerous, but make sure they have shade, and the color will become normal again after she/he gets their winter coat

Some wild rabbits are brown in the summer and white in the winter. All rabbits go through moults, which changes their appearance somewhat; however, some rabbits (including pet rabbits) don't usually change their coat colours.

Not all rabbits and hares change fur color, but in areas such as a tundra, they need to change fur color in order to avoid predators. Domestic rabbits do not change fur color, though.
