swamp rabbit
The swamp rabbit (''Sylvilagus aquaticus''), or swamp hare, is a large cottontail rabbit found in the swamps and wetlands of the southern United States. Other common names for the swamp rabbit include marsh rabbit and cane-cutter. The common name, along with the species name “aquaticus” (meaning found in water), are suitable names for a species with a strong preference for wet areas and that will take to the water and swim.〔
==Range and habitat==
The swamp rabbit is found in much of the south-central United States and along the Gulf coast.〔(''Sylvilagus aquaticus'' (swamp rabbit) ), Animal Diversity Web, University of Michigan Museum of Zoology.〕 It is most abundant in Alabama, Mississippi, and Louisiana, but also inhabits South Carolina, Tennessee, Texas, Oklahoma, Arkansas, Missouri, Kansas, Illinois, Indiana, and Georgia.〔
Swamp rabbits mainly live close to lowland water, often in cypress swamps, marshland, floodplain, and river tributaries.〔 Swamp rabbits spend much of their time in depressions which they dig in tall grass or leaves, providing cover while they wait until the nighttime to forage.〔
