It seems to be pretty certain that the fossil remains of the true rabbit exist in British formations dating back to the Prehistoric and Pleistocene periods. These remains have been found in Ireland, and in Devonshire, Yorkshire, and else- where in England. HARES AND RABBITS 215 The general colour of the rabbit is grayish-brown, but the neck becomes, in some examples, reddish-brown. The throat and belly are white, and the outside of the ear is grayish-brown, the inside being a buff-white. There ...is a narrow black edging along the tip of the ear, but no decided black point like that seen in so many forms of hare. The top of the short tail is blackish, the under side, or " scut, " is pure white. The upturned white tail of the rabbit when it is in flight undoubtedly serves as a signal and warning to its fellows. The wild rabbit measures in adult specimens about 16 in. From the tip of the nose to the base of the tail, and the tail is another 3 in. In length. The ears are far shorter than those of the common hare, quite two-thirds shorter proportionately.
