Actually, both of them are Hares - but no, they are not the same. However, both of them have white coats in Winter and brown coats in Summer: the brown summer coat blends in with tundra vegetation and white winter coat provides camoflauge against snow.
Arctic Hare = Lepus timidus
Snowshoe Hare = Lepus americano
Sorry if the information I have is incorrect.
Hare = English Rabbit = American English They mean the same thing.
The Arctic hare shares its habitat with various organisms adapted to cold environments, including caribou, Arctic foxes, and snowshoe hares. Additionally, it coexists with migratory birds such as the snow bunting and the Arctic tern. The tundra ecosystem also supports various plant species like lichens, mosses, and low shrubs that provide food and shelter for these animals.

No. A Cottontail rabbit is not a rabbit at all. It is a Hare, a cousin to our Domestic rabbits. In-fact if you put a female Hare in a Male rabbits cage, or visa versa they can't breed. They look they same but they are not the same thing.
The arctic hare (Lepus arcticus), or polar rabbit, subsists upon crowberries, grasses, mosses, lichens, seaweed, willow twigs, and the bark, leaves, and stems of woody plants. When early summer arrives, purple mountain saxifrage is a favorite. Four subspecies of the arctic hare are recognized.Sometimes the hare will eat meat in the winter. In the winter the arctic hare also feeds on bare twigs and vegetables just under the snow. They also feed on grass, bugs, twigs, and leaves in the summer. In the winter it will also eat spruce twigs, bark, needles, and buds of hard wood. They will also feed on willow and dwarf arctic plants.Animals in the same family tend to eat similar food, so a hare would eat the same stuff as a wild English countryside rabbit, which would be grass, moss, heather and any wild plant things.
A hare is Another species. Similar but not the same. A male rabbit is a buck.
rabbits and hares hop the same and look the same but they have different facial features
The homonym for "rabbit fur" is "hare." Both terms refer to different types of animals within the same family, but "hare" can also be used as a synonym for rabbit in some contexts, especially in older literature. Additionally, "hare" is a word that sounds similar to "hair," which is another homonym.
No, they are two completely different people, or animals rather! The White Rabbit leads Alice down the hole. He works for the queen. The March Hare is introduced at the tea party and is friends with the Hatter.
