This behavior was adapted mechanically into the obscure TTRPG game Bunnies and Burrows, itself an unlicensed adaptation of the Richard Adams book Watership Down. I DM'd it once. It's a bit archaic, but it's a fun time.

These looked like hares to me (not rabbits) and sure enough, it seems that jack rabbits are actually hares. I think I learned that at one point and forgot, something which will probably be increasingly common in my life, haha. *gulp*

• Hares vs. Rabbits: Unlike true rabbits, which are born blind and hairless, jackrabbit babies (leverets) are born with fur, open eyes, and are ready to move around shortly after birth.

• Built-in Radiators: Those enormous ears aren't just for hearing; they also act as radiators to release body heat and regulate temperature in hot, arid climates.

• Diet: They are herbivores that eat grasses, shrubs, and bark. To maximize nutrient absorption, they practice coprophagy, meaning they digest specific droppings a second time to extract essential proteins.

• Running Style: When evading danger, they utilize a zigzag, "jitterbugging" running pattern to confuse pursuers.

They look like they are just horsing around
