These animals do considerable damage to garden truck and other farm crops also, especially on lands recently opened to cultivation. North American rabbits belong to two general classes easily distinguished by their size and habits. The larger forms1 include the snowshoe hares and jack rabbits and are found throughout nearly all of Alaska and Canada and in all States west of the Mississippi River except Arkansas and Louisi ana. East of the Mississippi snowshoe hares are found in the north ern parts of Minnesota, Wisconsin, and Michigan, most of New York, and New England, and southward in the Appalachian Mountains, parts of Pennsylvania, Maryland, and Virginia. Jack rabbits are not found east of the Mississippi except where introduced. The smaller forms,2 generally called cottontail rabbits, occur in every State, but are absent from the greater part of Maine, the northern parts of New Hampshire, Vermont, New York, Michigan, Wisconsin, and Minnesota, and the western parts of Washington and Oregon. In recent years they have extended their range north ward in the New England States, New York, and parts of the West and have invaded and occupied much of the Province of Ontario.
