Appalachian cottontail

The Appalachian cottontail (''Sylvilagus obscurus'') is a species of cottontail rabbit in the family Leporidae. It is a rare species found in the upland areas of the eastern United States, which was only recognized as separate from the New England cottontail in 1992.〔
==Brief Description==

The Appalachian Cottontail or ''Sylvilagus obscurus'' is a small rabbit inhabiting mostly mountainous regions in the eastern U.S. ranging anywhere from Pennsylvania to South Carolina and being most prominent in the Appalachians.〔 ''S. obscurus'' is better adapted to colder climates than their distant relative, the eastern cottontail. ''S. obscurus'' is better found as a light-yellow brown, mixed with black on the dorsal side, having a brown and red patch mixed on the neck. Their ventral side is mostly white.〔 The Appalachian cottontail and New England Cottontail are not easily distinguished in the field but and are most easily identified geographically. Cottontails found south or west of the Hudson River are considered Appalachian, those found north and east are considered New England. The species can otherwise be identified by chromosome number and skull measurements.〔 Female Appalachian cottontails are typically larger than males with reproductive needs being the most likely cause. The weight of the Appalachian Cottontail can range from as little as 756 grams up to as much as 1533 grams. The average length is roughly around 408mm. The lifespan of ''S. obscurus'' is rather short and lives less than a year in some cases.〔
