The European Hare is a small mammal native to Europe and parts of Asia. They're the largest of the hare and bunny family. They have been introduced to North and South America and Australia. They live in open fields with shrubs, brush and ditches for shelter and cover. They mainly feed on grass, herbs, twigs, buds and crops. They're primarily active during nights and dawn, hiding in the ground during the days.

European Hares are notorious for their breeding habits, as they breed almost year-round with heights of March and April, hence the saying "mad like a march hare". Females can have one to five leverets per litter with up to four litters each year. Males will fight among each other by striking each other with their paws in a boxing-like fashion and females will have to fight off unsuitable males, which will be active even during the unsafe daytime during the peak of breeding season. Young hares can leave the nest soon after they're born as the depressions in the ground don't offer much protection.

European Hares are built for high speed and endurance as they have big nostrils and powerful legs. They can reach speeds of up to 70 km/h. They need this speed to escape their many predators, such as Foxes, Cats, Eagles and Humans. Though the Hare population has decreased drastically over the past decades, they're still listed as Least Concern on the IUCN Red List.
