Several species of cottontail rabbits (Sylvilagus) are common across much of North America; often they are simply called 'cottontails'. This one is the eastern cottontail (S. floridanus), the most common rabbit in most of eastern North America. This one was sitting in a small open area on the Konza Prairie near Manhattan, Kansas. Its fur is a bit damp due to recent rains and wet vegetation. |
