To most people, including pagans, the hare meant one thing: food. As a pest, they have always been hunted.

Symbolically many groups used the rabbit or hare as a symbol of fecundity (childbearing). The early Germanic goddess Ēostre or Ostara (her name is still remembered in our word Easter) has the rabbit as her companion animal. She represented the rebirth of the world in the Spring.
