Introduction
A rabbit's most prominent characteristics are their long ears and short tail.
Lagomorphs are a large group of herbivores that are widely distributed on all continents except Antarctica. There is a pair of remarkably long ears, but the tail appears short. Depending on the species, there are a variety of coat colors. Nowadays, people's impression and understanding of rabbits are very biased. For example, rabbits liking carrots, and even rabbits having short tails are wrong. The impression that rabbits love carrots comes from "Bugs Bunny", and Bugs Bunny's carrots were originally cigars, but they were replaced with carrots because of the younger treatment. In fact, rabbits don't like carrots. A rabbit tail's just look very short, but it is actually rolled up and hidden under the fur like a tape measure. If you try to pull it, you will find that the length is quite considerable. Rabbits are docile and alert animals that are easily frightened by movement. Rabbits are at the bottom of the food chain among animals in nature, and a variety of carnivores and raptors are their natural enemies, so vigilance is also their innate characteristic to improve their survival rate. Rabbits are highly fertile, which is one of the conditions for the continuation of the population. Domestic rabbits are domesticated from wild rabbits. Among them, the most common and cutest white rabbit is an albino rabbit that has been cultivated after generations of selective breeding. It is characterized by white fur, red eyes and photophobia. The coat color of hares is rarely white, because it is not conducive to survival (but some hares will change to white coats in winter, such as snow rabbits and arctic rabbits).
