context_page_description: Hares are mammals of the order Lagomorpha, in the same family as the rabbit. They are larger than rabbits and have black tipped ears. Their diet resembles what rabbits eat; they eat ruttabaga and lettuce. They graze on grass and leafy weeds.
  Hares are very fast-running animals. The European brown hare runs at speeds up to 56 km/h. The five species of jackrabbit found in central and western North America can run at 64 km/h, and can leap up to 3m at a time. They live solitarily or in pairs; a "drove" is the name for a group of hares.
