Thread: Whats up wi this Hare ?

Mad as a March hare, actually happens in NZ during Sept / Oct (spring) As said above result of nesting ...stripping fur to help keep kittens (usually 2) warm. Hares are haemophiliac so scratches won't heal well and go towards pustules. Could even be a male and the Mrs has flogged his fur for the kids.

Hares don't burrow but live above ground in what is called a form, they generally have several about their territory. So they are exposed to the elements more than rabbits.
