When it is quite chilly in the environment around us, the human body sends blood to the places which are cold thus heating them up. That is the reason why parts of the body are red and that's why they heat up.

people say that when your ears burn it is because someone is talking about you, but the reason that your ears burn is because you have a mild headache that is creeping up on you.

Your ears may sometimes feel hot or turn red due to blood rushing to the area. This is sometimes caused by emotions, fears, embarassing moments, so forth.

I think it is because when you come in to a warm house the warmth tries to warm up your ears

Heat is radiated by every square centimeter of the human body. So, heat is radiated by both the ears and head.

What do rabbits need long ears for?

No, a common misconception. Look up a picture of an "enlgish lop" sometime. Very very long ears (22 inch span). This breed in particular originated in Africa. The ears on any rabbit are to release heat. They are like a built in AC. With so much surface area, the heat given off allows long eared breeds to survive in hotter climates better. Dwarf rabbits, who's ears are the smallest, are that way to conserve heat. With less surface area the ears don't give off as much heat and allow the rabbit to survive better in colder climates.
