Jackrabbits are actually hares.
Hares and rabbits are closely related: they belong to different genera, but they're classified in the same family (Leporidae, of the order Lagomorpha).
Hares give birth to their babies above-ground, while rabbits give birth to babies in underground burrows. Baby hares (leverets) are born with fur and they're able to see, while baby rabbits (kits) are born blind and naked.
Hares tend to have longer legs, ears, and faces than rabbits do, but there is variation between different species.
Young rabbits are called "kits" (based on the word "kitten") regardless of gender. The group or litter of baby rabbits can be called a "kindle." Young hares (under a year old) are called "leverets" regardless of gender. Adult male rabbits and hares are called bucks. Adult female rabbits and hares are called does.
There is a slight difference between rabbits and hares. They both belong to the 'Leporidae' family and 'Lagomorpha' Order. However, hares do not bear young in burrows or underground, they bear their young in a shallow depression that is called a 'form'.

Rodents. Nope, they are in the family "Lagomorph". This means they have long ears, gnawing teeth, large back feet, and a short tail. It is similar to the rodent but not quite.
Actually rabbits or hares do not hibernate at all, but they do become less active to conserve energy, but they do not hibernate.
