Their ears keep them cool by circulating the blood and and releasing the heat from their bloodstream into the cold air (similar to a refridgerator).
Jackrabbits have adaptations like large ears for heat regulation, long legs for fast running to escape predators, and nocturnal behavior to avoid the heat of the day in the desert environment. They also have a specialized digestive system to extract water from the dry vegetation they consume.
Hares and jackrabbits.
Yes, Nebraska does have jackrabbits. They can be found in various regions of the state, particularly in grasslands and shrublands. Jackrabbits are known for their long ears and powerful hind legs, which allow them to run fast to escape predators.
Rabbits in the desert have long ears because they are used for cooling. The blood is pumped through the small capillaries in the ear which helps by releasing some of the heat from the blood into the atmosphere thus cooling the body temperature of the rabbit. To aide in cooling off a rabbit place cool compresses on their ears. The evaporation process will speed up the cooling.
no they dont even have ears
Elephants, Texas jackrabbits, some donkeys.
During the hottest time of the day, the rabbits try to stay in the shade of shrubs and trees. They also have large ears that helps their bodies get rid of excess heat.
The fennec fox is a small desert predator found in the Sahara and has large ears. See the image above.
Desert foxes have large ears to help regulate their body temperature in the extreme heat of their desert environment. The large surface area of their ears allows for better heat exchange and cooling through blood vessels close to the skin. Additionally, their ears also help enhance their hearing, allowing them to detect prey and predators in the open desert landscape.

large ears to cool blood
Cold wet towel on ears or body, have the bunny lay next to bottle of frozen water,Ears are where a rabbit expels heat , but lying next to a frozen bottle will help too!
