A group of hares is called a "down" likely due to historical usage of the term in England, where "down" refers to grassy hills or downs, which are common habitats for hares. The term may also be linked to the Old English word "dūn," meaning hill. This naming reflects the natural environment where these animals are often found, emphasizing their connection to the landscape.
