Are hares and rabbits the same?
Yes, they are the same animal. "Bunny" is another word for "rabbit": "bunnies" is just a nickname that rabbits were given. A different opinion: While many people believe them to be the same thing, Rabbits and Bunnies are distinctly yet intricately different species. Bunnies, Rabbits, Hares, and Pikas all share common ancestry but are quite different, as characterized by popular media: Bugs Bunny, Roger Rabbit, Peter Pika, and Harry Hare. A response: Popular media doesn't always represent reality! It is true what you said about rabbits, hares and pikas, but you're wrong about bunnies: they are not a distinct animal. Here's how the nickname came about: long, long ago, rabbits were called "coneys" (pronounced with a soft 'o', as in "honey"). Back then, "rabbit" was in fact the name for baby coneys. The name "bunny" became a nickname for coneys, because the two words rhyme. Eventually, the word "coney" dropped out of use, and "rabbit" came to be used for adults, while "kits" (from "kittens") came to be used for babies; the nickname "bunny" stuck around and is still used today.
