Lips are a visible organ, at the mouth of many animals. Lips are soft, protruding, movable, and serve as the opening for food intake and other acts of intimacy, as a tactile sensory organ, and in the articulation. Teeth in animals vary greatly. Some animals, such as turtles and tortoises, are toothless. Other animals, such as sharks, may go through many teeth in their lifetime. The multiple replacement of teeth is known as polyphedont. Since the appearance of teeth reflects their function, the animal’s diet may correspond to types of teeth. For example, carnassials are teeth in carnivores used for slicing food. Elephants’ tusks are specialized incisors for digging food up and fighting. / Some of elephant teeth are similar to those in manatees. Mandibular molars of manatees develop separately from the jaw and are encased in a bony shell separated by soft tissue. In dogs, the teeth are less likely than humans to form dental caries because of the very high pH of dog saliva, which prevents enamel from demineralizing.
Like all birds of prey, eagles have very large powerful hooked beaks for tearing flesh from their prey, strong legs, and powerful talons. They also have extremely keen eyesight to enable them to spot potential prey from a very long distance. / ( wikipedia.org)

Hares and jackrabbits are leporids belonging to the genus Lepus. Very young hares, less than one year old, are called leverets.They are very fast moving, they can run at speeds of up to 72 km/h (45 mph). In spring hares can be seen in broad daylight chasing one another around meadows; this appears to be competition between males to attain dominance . During this spring frenzy, hares can be seen boxing; one hare striking another with its paws. For a long time it had been thought that this was inter-male competition, but closer observation has revealed that it is usually a female hitting a male, either to show that she is not yet quite ready to mate, or as a test of his determination. / (wikipedia.org)

Rabbits are small mammals in the family Leporidae of the order Lagomorpha, found in several parts of the world. There are seven different genera in the family classified as rabbits, along with cottontails, pikas, and hares, make up the order Lagomorpha. Rabbits kept in a home as pets for companionship are referred to as house rabbits. They typically have an indoor pen and a rabbit-safe place to run and exercise, such as a living or family room. Rabbits are easily trained to use a litter box and can learn to come when called.
While the European rabbit is the best-known species, it is probably also the least typical, as there is considerable variability in the natural history of rabbits. Many rabbits dig burrows, but cottontails and hispid hares do not. The European rabbit constructs the most extensive burrow systems, called warrens. Non-burrowing rabbits make surface nests called forms, generally under dense protective cover. The European rabbit occupies open landscapes such as fields, parks, and gardens, although it has colonized habitats from stony deserts to subalpine valleys. It is the most social rabbit, sometimes forming groups in warrens of up to 20 individuals. However, even in European rabbits social behavior can be quite flexible, depending on habitat and other local conditions, so that at times the primary social unit is a territorial breeding pair. Most rabbits are relatively solitary and sometimes territorial, coming together only to breed or occasionally to forage in small groups. During territorial disputes rabbits will sometimes box, using their front limbs. Rabbits are active throughout the year; no species is known to hibernate. Rabbits are generally nocturnal, and they also are relatively silent. Other than loud screams when frightened or caught by a predator, the only auditory signal known for most species is a loud foot thump made to indicate alarm or aggression. Notable exceptions are the Amami rabbit and the volcano rabbit of Mexico, which both utter a variety of calls. (wikipedia.org) Instead of sound, scent seems to play a predominant role in the communication systems of most rabbits; they possess well-developed glands throughout their body and rub them on fixed objects to convey group identity, sex, age, social and reproductive status, and territory ownership. Urine is also used in chemical communication. When danger is perceived, the general tendency of rabbits is to freeze and hide under cover. If chased by a predator, they engage in quick, irregular movement, designed more to evade and confuse than to outdistance a pursuer. Skeletal adaptations such as long hind limbs and a strengthened pelvic girdle enable their agility and speed (up to 80 km [50 miles] per hour).
