I thought they were hares over there? As we have only rabbits (cottontails and jack), I wouldn\'t know the difference.

Well Hares look like this :-

And behave like this:-

A good few years ago my wife and I were walking the dog one sunday morning and saw about a dozen hares dancing and running around in what I believe to be some kind of mating behaviour. We watched them for easily 15-20 minutes and the were oblivious to both of us and the dog. Wish I\'d had either a camera or a video with us that day.

We had/ have a habit of going for a good long walk on Christmas morning and one such morning were walking along the path of a counrty park when two Roe Deer crossed our path less than 10 feet in front of us. Magic sight!. :D


Edit: What you call a \"jackrabbit\" might be a hare.
I re-read your post as well, yes we still have \'Hares\' but they are not as numerous as the French imports.

Your hare does bear a striking resemblance to our jackrabbits. Although jackrabbits are become very rare in the midwest. Cottontails however are a plague, similar to locusts. They are at least edible, but only after a good freeze (kills off the wormy ones - or so I have always been told.)

A huntsman (of sorts) speaks...

Rabbits: Brainless, stupid, short-lived little buggers that make really nice stews. Possibly their only redeeming feature. Shoot on sight.

Hares: Fantastic creatures that seem intelligent, long-lived and mate for life. Part of our heritage and I\'d maim anyone I saw pointing a gun at them.:D

Mark this day down in the calendars people Finn17 & I agree 100% on something.

Hare coursing! Why doen\'t we chase the people who do that down with Dogs instead. Might increase the percentile IQ of the Human race, by a fraction.

I\'m sure you\'ll enjoy your stay and will sooon be addicted to this little madhouse. Just a few words of caution:

1) Don\'t listen to Finn (either 17 or 18) He just posts to keep his numbers up ;) True!

2) Same goes for I-PMS. SHe\'s only chasing FInn. :D Also True

3) Beware of SuperVIke. He\'s quite daft & in complete denial ever since he started the [CENSORED: The name of this thread has been permanently banned form these Forums and, therefore, had been removed from this post] thread. :Dlol

Other than that, most of the Forum dwellers are quite harmless. He\'s lying! With the exception of Me, Tooshy, Fizl, Gypsy, Dauber22, Darthfoley, Airhead, War Griffon, Klute, Avicenna, Tammy, Jkaen, WiccanPony, Chrispy, EbonBhudda, Evil Dave, kittykat23Uk, U4-Welcome, Nelson, Dennismech, Zaphod, Grumbold Ironbrow, Greymane, KingM, Mickc22, Sturmhalo, Zora & yrret Everyone else on here is \"normal\" Just don\'t stand too close, especially if you have chocolate in your hand (or a lager, in Finn\'s case) Or if you\'re paintings any good watch out for A Hammer ;)
Anyhow Welcome to another Brit, we\'ve got to keep those French chappies in their place. ;);)

Hey, what did I do to make it onto this list??? huh, somebody tell me.. what....oh that....sorry, you\'re right!!!lol

Anyway, welcome to the madness we call the forums psysquig. Abandon all hope of getting any painting done, you\'ve stepped in the quicksand now1;)

Cheers,
Grumb

Darth Re-read it. I said everyone else was normal. ;)lol
I\'m nowhere near normality, in fact I\'m somewhere to the left of the map.

Grumb You have to ask after the PYP Annual?
