The exact origins of this mythical mammal are unclear, but rabbits, known to be prolific procreators, are an ancient symbol of fertility and new life.

Easter bunny is a hare.
History is leaning a lot towards it being a hare, and it's mentioned only in one source on the internet (whether it's credible or not I can't say) that it is a riverine rabbit and it's the first time I'm hearing about it. Always been a hare.

However, if the jesters want to accept riverine rabbit as a correct answer is entirely up to them.

English name from old goddess Eostre/German from old words (roots) for dawn and/or east. I don't think there is a concrete evidence of origin though.

And I know the answer is outside the time limit. Doesn't really matter to me if it's invalid
