The Irish hare, which has longer ears than rabbits, is the only species of hare found in Ireland and it is a protected species in Northern Ireland. There is a Celtic myth of shapeshifting hares, believed to transform into women dressed in white. Chasing and hunting hares was a common pastime in Ireland, and if the hare was wounded while being chased by hunters with their dogs, so the legend goes that upon closer inspection, they would discover that they had in fact wounded or killed a woman dressed in white.
