    I think it’s one of those Snapchat filter things…

    That looks like the jackrabbit we followed down the road one night in North Dakota. It certainly has the ears. ?

      North Dakota? I thought ears that big were reserved for desert animals.

        And the plains.

    The size and shape of the ears are astonishing! I wonder how they keep them clean of the dirt from their burrows? Or is that a constant source of irritation?

      Don’t you mean “ear-itation”?

        Yes!

      A bunneh can lay and fold down their ears enough to keep dirt , somewhat from getting in, at least to a minimum. The large ears also help them to cool off by regulating the blood vessels in the ear, to help the heat escape and to hear predators better.

        What Luv Bunny said! They also fold down those ears when they are mad at you to say, “I can’t hear you!” (in a sing-songy voice). If you get the bunny butt and the closed, flat ears you are in big trouble with that bunny.

    Whatever the reason (and what you said, Luv Bunny, makes perfect sense) for the great ears, they are magnificent! And boy, can those rabbits move when they want to — especially when those massive ears give them early warning of something evil and dangerous, like a person with a camera!

    This guy must need Q-tips the size of a plunger! 😀

    Oh dear, I do keep looking things up, but I mostly wanted to verify what I guessed. Jackrabbits don’t burrow. Heck, the Eastern Cottontail doesn’t even make much more than scrapes or forms. Most North American critters don’t seem to be homebodies!

    I think he might be pond because TV went digital and now all he can get is local programming.

    They’re real and they’re spectacul-ear!
