The Fascinating World of Rabbits and Hares: Similarities, Differences, and Fun Facts

Rabbits are not related to mustolids or rodents but belong to the Laporodi family. They are often confused with hares, which are in the same family but are different species. There are 28 species of rabbits and 30 species of hares, each adapted to various environments worldwide. Both animals share physical traits like long ears and strong teeth, but hares are generally larger. Hares change fur color in winter for camouflage, unlike rabbits. They have different social behaviors, with some living alone and others in groups. Their diet mainly consists of grasses and herbs, and they face predators like birds and mammals. Hares and rabbits reproduce frequently, with hares having more independent newborns than rabbits.
