Another individual in the group on the way to Pasco Canyon (see adjacent photo), showing off his large ears. They're supposed to have a role in thermal regulation.

Lepus californicus, a hare rather than a true rabbit, and very common in the US west. There were about a dozen individuals here in an area outside a gate to a ranch, where there was some agricultural equipment parked. I assume there must have been something to eat scattered around as a result of the operations! The inset shows another view, with yet another rabbit visible off to the right. On the way to Pasco Canyon, Toquima Range, Nevada.

Lepus californicus . One of the most common lagomorphs in western North America. It's actually a hare rather than a true rabbit--it runs (as seen here), rather than hops, and the young are born fully furred and able to run. Seen in the lot in front of our motel in Baker, Nevada, outside Great Basin National Park. This guy better develop some 'fraidness, or he's not long for this world!
