Mother Nature is wise! To what only to tricks all resorts live on the planet for continuation of life. Some beings for protection by the coloring as much as possible merge with the world around, others are painted very brightly that bears as a result the advantage to survival.
The widespread myth about hares
It is quite often possible to hear such opinion that the doe hare after the birth of posterity feeds him and at once leaves forever. Such opinion is very widespread. Besides, the science knows that hares and rabbits have special fertility, the doe hare becomes covered already in few weeks after the delivery again and for one season brings viable cubs several times.
Considering these facts, expression "propagate as rabbits" has rather negative coloring, reflecting condemnation for lack of care of the posterity. Meanwhile, with opinion that the doe hare is next mother cuckoo, it is worth arguing as it not absolutely is true.
To care, leaving
Yes, yes. Quite so paradoxically the slogan of mummies doe hares could sound. Actually, leverets are born sighted people, with standing ears at once, and only one distinguishes them from an adult individual: they do not allocate any smells which would allow predators to define their location. The only place where there are sweat glands excreting a pungent smell is soles of pads, but in the absence of mother of a crumb sit almost not movably, drawing in pads under themselves that does not give the chance to track down them even to a sharp scent of a fox. Having fed leverets with very fat milk which will be digested about 3 - 4 days, mother instinctively abandons leverets that not to draw with the smell attention to them and also to live most. Through the specified time she comes back, without forgetting to confuse traces at the same time properly. One more moment is that upon return detection of posterity for mother represents the same difficulties, as well as for enemies. It is possible for this reason the nature provided one more feature: if the doe hare comes across foreign cubs, she will surely feed them as the, and some other mother probably cares at this time for her leverets. And in one-two weeks the newborns will try a grass, will begin to eat independently and will run up in different directions in adulthood. And mother will shortly bring new as the number of fans of a hare in the nature does not leave the choice.
