Head—body 490-540 mm, tail 37-41 mm, ear 70-80 mm, hindfoot 132-165 mm; weight 2:4.2-7 kg. The Japanese Hare is small, with compact stature and short ears and tail. Fur is dense and soft. Pelage is umber to tawny brown, with variable amounts of white on head and legs. Chest and sides are cinnamon. Throat and ventral fur are white, occasionally with dark hair tips. Ears are dorsally white or cinnamon, with small brown-black patches at tips. Tail is darker above and lighter below than dorsal fur. Japanese Hares inhabiting north-eastern Hondos and mountain regions have white winter fur. On Oki Island, melanistic morph that does not turn white in winter despite deep snow cover may indicate relatively recent introduction of a subspecies. Color varies geographically, with several distinct color forms. A recent genetic study showed that there is no association between winter coat color and genetic population structure in the Japanese Hare.

|
||
Fields, grasslands, and open forests from lowlands to alpine zones from sea level to elevations of more than 3000 m. Most common in low montane and montane zones. Land use and agriculture in Japan have remained stable for many centuries, and 68% ofJapan is covered by forest, providing stable habitat for the Japanese Hare. It prefers young forest stands, where open canopy allows greater herbaceous production and shrubs occur with high branch and stem densities. The Japanese Hare rests in bushes, under rocks or fallen trees, or in shallow burrows that they dig themselves.

|
||
Reproductive season of the Japanese Hare occurs in February—July. Young are born in April-August but mostly in May/June when litter size is largest (2-5 young). The Japanese Hare has 2-3 litters/year;litter sizes are 1-6 young, with an average of 1-9 young. Young are born in a shallow nest dug by the mother and can run around one hour after birth. Young are nursed once per night for c¢.2 minutes at about midnight. They start feeding on plants c.8 days after birth but nurse until c.1 month after birth. Females are sexually mature at c.10 months of age.

|

The Japanese Hare is nocturnal. In captivity, activity starts at ¢.19:00 h and ends at 07:00-08:00 h after a period of restless running. During rest, individuals often close their eyes for 1-3 minutes for ¢.20 minutes/day. They groom before and after activity.

|

Classified as Least Concern on The IUCN Red List. The Japanese Hare is common across most of its distribution. Total population size in Japan is unknown but shows a stable trend. There has been recent concern regarding population decline of the Japanese Hare on Sado Island where it used to be common but is now rare, presumably due to predation by introduced Japanese Martens (Martes melampus). The Japanese Hare is an important game animal with ¢.400,000-800,000 individuals harvested each year. Recommendations are to determine population trends, densities, and current distribution.
