Hare

Hares are characters of the Masha and the Bear series.

Description[]

In the forest there live many hares. Very often hares appear along with hedgehogs and squirrels. One of them is best known. Masha calls him Bunny (rus. Зайка).

Bunny[]

Bunny is curious, but gutless and weak-willed — he often should docilely follow the lead of Masha or obeys brute force. In rare moments, he can show bravery; and sometimes he gets angry if someone interferes with his affairs or rudely invades his personal space.

Bunny is one of the few characters with a clear story line. In the episode 12. No Trespassing!, Bunny along with Bear planted carrots in Bear's garden, but their goals were different. Bear wanted to get a record-sized crop, but Bunny just wanted to eat, so when the carrots grew a little, they quarreled, and then Bunny began to regularly visit the vegetable garden of the Bear and steal the carrots. A little later (in the ep. 17. Recipe For Disaster), not wanting to play with Masha in "hockey" (on the grass, but with sticks and a puck), in punishment for another stealing carrots, Bear forced Bunny to play by putting him at the gate instead of himself; since then Masha and Bunny often play together.

Bunny lives inside a tree, where he has his own small room. There are a lot of books, a closet, a table, a couple of chairs and a few pictures depicting hares.

Bunny likes to stack pyramids of carrots such as card houses. It's his hobby. Sometimes he grows his own carrots. As a child he was very energetic and disobedient, because of what he got in trouble, for which he was often punished by his mother.
