The
traditional ‘Mad March Hare’ behaviour which involves
boxing, is actually unreceptive females fending off males.
Being the fastest land animals in the UK, brown hares escape
predators by out-running them.
The
hare is known to be sacred to the goddess Eostre and
eventually became known as the Easter bunny, it is believed
to represent growth, re-birth, abundance and good fortune.
At
Easter we eat Hot-Cross-Buns, the cross on the bun is said
to represent the four quarters of the moon, these buns were
originally pagan offerings. Courtship involves boxing - the
traditional 'mad March hare' behaviour.
