The European hare is the fastest land mammal in the UK.
They are much longer-limbed and swifter than rabbits. They use their powerful hind legs to escape predation by outrunning their enemies, and have been known to reach speeds of 72kph (45mph).
Their courtship involves boxing, and this well-known 'mad March hare' behaviour actually involves unreceptive females fending off passionate males.
