  Thumper (Bambi) is a rabbit.

  Hazel (Watership down) is a hare.

  My dog once caught what I thought was a diseased rabbit (because how else could my fluffball catch a rabbit?), but now I’m thinking it was just a hare

  Looked like it had just come back from the ethereal plane, its eyes were so wide

    Well, yeah. If I got chased down and caught by a predator 4 times my size, I’d be a little wide-eyed, too.

  Hares are like what rabbits become after they go through what Aimo Koivunen did.

  A scout on the Finno-Russian border, their group got attacked by the Soviets, they fled and because skiing is hard fucking work, he got fatigued but couldn’t stop, so he decided to take some of the Pervitin (meth) he had been issued. He couldn’t get a single tablet out with his frozen hand and accidentally took his squads entirely dose.

  Was gone for a week. Skiid for 400km. Ate pinecombs and one siberian jay, raw. Pulse 200 and weighed 43kg (95lbs) when admitted to a hospital.

    This is the first time I’m seeing the word Pervitin in English, while that’s pretty much the only word my language uses. Most people wouldn’t know what methamphetamine is, but everyone has heard of Pervitin. I thought it was some local-only name, guess it’s time to learn the etymology.

      It’s literally a brand, like heroin was.

      Local to Finland… ?

  Hares look pretty similar to cats anatomy wise - minus the ears and tail of course. I wonder what cats think of them. Imagine a human with ridiculously long ears who hops to get around. I’d be scared shitless.

    I think someone mentioned once that there are places where rabbits are legally required to be sold with their head still attached, because otherwise it was possible to pass off a decapitated cat as a rabbit.

    In Austria cats are sometimes jokingly called “Dachhase”, which means roof hare.

  In their insanity hares will fuck up your garden if you don’t set up defenses.

    These fuckers can do a flip jump into wide, not tall enough fencing. I thought my mulberry was safe with 1m of compost fence around it. I was mistaken. Thankfully they left the main trunk alone so it has a good chance still.

  Huh. Until right now, I thought rabbit and hare were synonyms.

  When I saw my first European Hare, I noted how not-cute and cuddly it looked… and thought to call them “hares” to denote to myself that they were not the cute rabbits I was familiar with. But now I feel dumb because that’s literally what it is.

  This is likely what Tim the Enchanter actually saw, which he misidentified as “just a bunny”. We can infer this from the aftermath that followed.

  who is old enough to have a wife but has never heard about hares??

    I’ve never seen hares in the UK but wild rabbits are all over the place.

    • stebo02@lemmy.dbzer0.com ⁨13⁩ ⁨hours⁩ ago

      I’ve not seen them but I have heard of them. There are so many children’s stories and movies that feature hares
