A hare is a fast-running mammal that belongs to the family Leporidae, which also includes rabbits. Hares are known for their long ears, strong hind legs, and large eyes. They typically have a slender body and can be found in various habitats, including fields, forests, and grasslands. Unlike rabbits, hares are generally larger and do not dig burrows; instead, they create nests in tall grass. Hares are herbivores, primarily feeding on grasses, leaves, and other vegetation. They are known for their incredible speed, which helps them escape predators such as foxes and birds of prey. Hares are also known for their unique breeding habits, often giving birth to young that are fully furred and able to hop shortly after birth.
