Jackrabbits are actually hares.
Hares and rabbits are closely related: they belong to different genera, but they're classified in the same family (Leporidae, of the order Lagomorpha).
Hares give birth to their babies above-ground, while rabbits give birth to babies in underground burrows. Baby hares (leverets) are born with fur and they're able to see, while baby rabbits (kits) are born blind and naked.
Hares tend to have longer legs, ears, and faces than rabbits do, but there is variation between different species.
There are a number of differences between a hare and a rabbit. However, the animal known as the jackrabbit is a type of hare, and shares many common attributes with other species of hares.
A rabbit was born with no fur
A rabbit was born with their eyes closed
A rabbit has shorter ears and legs
A rabbit is smaller
They are both fluffy and small and could be found in the same places or continents.
Young rabbits are called "kits" (based on the word "kitten") regardless of gender. The group or litter of baby rabbits can be called a "kindle." Young hares (under a year old) are called "leverets" regardless of gender. Adult male rabbits and hares are called bucks. Adult female rabbits and hares are called does.
No they do not.
Rodents. Nope, they are in the family "Lagomorph". This means they have long ears, gnawing teeth, large back feet, and a short tail. It is similar to the rodent but not quite.
No..Rabbits and hares do not have pouches.
Actually rabbits or hares do not hibernate at all, but they do become less active to conserve energy, but they do not hibernate.
The collective nouns for rabbits are: bury of rabbits colony of rabbits down of rabbits drove of rabbits husk of rabbits leash of rabbits trace of rabbits trip of rabbits warren of rabbits nest of rabbits (young) wrack of rabbits (young) And for hares: drove of hares down of hares husk of hares leash of hares trace of hares trip of hares warren of hares I hope this is useful!
Cousins to rabbits and hares are animals in the same family (Leporidae), such as pikas. Pikas are small mammals that resemble rabbits but are more closely related to hares.
Rabbits, hares, and pikas are known as Lagomorphs.
No. Rabbits and hares were found about 53 million years ago
Of course, rabbits and hares are in the same family of Legamorphs.
nice rabbits and hares
Bunnies and hares. All hares and rabbits probably descend from a single pair.
rabbits and hares hop the same and look the same but they have different facial features
Rabbits are similar to hares, but rabbits are born furless and with their eyes closed, and they cannot move for a few days. Hares are born fully furred with their eyes open, and can run a few hours after birth. Hares also have larger ears and powerful hind legs.
Hares, bunnies.
