How is a hare different from a rabbit?
The major difference between a rabbit and a hare is that the young of a hare are born open-eyed and furred. The rabbit’s young are born naked and with closed eyes. Hare are able to leave the nest soon after they are born but rabbits don’t even open their eyes for 7-10 days. Some people say that the length of the ears is part of the difference but arctic hare have short ears while hare outside of Arctic areas have long ears.
