IT HEARD ME COMING - A small Eastern Cottontail Rabbit forages in the yard. Rabbits' large ears DO help them hear better by acting as "satellite dishes" funneling sound into the ear and allowing them to detect faint sounds from a distance. But the long ears also help the rabbit regulate body temperature and their hearing is not significantly better than humans.
