A group of Hares is most often called a down, a husk, a warren, a band, a drove, or a flick. You may also hear a group of Hares described as a trace, a trip, a herd, a leap, a kindle, a leash, or a mute.
Most of these names trace back to how the animals behave. A down refers to a group of Hares sheltering in a burrow, a husk to a group resting in a thicket, and a warren to a group living in a warren. A band is a group that stays together as it moves, a drove is a group travelling in a line, and a flick is a group on the move at speed.
