The March Hare
The March Hare is a character in Lewis Carroll's 1865 book Alice's Adventures in Wonderland. He is most famous for appearing in the tea party scene, where he is described as being "mad as a March hare." This phrase is based on the popular belief that hares are particularly aggressive during the breeding season, which lasts from February to September in Britain.
The March Hare is also known for his obsession with time. He believes that it is always tea-time, and he often talks about "murdering the time." This is a reference to the fact that the Hatter, the March Hare's friend, was executed for "murdering" time by singing for the Queen of Hearts.
The March Hare is a complex and fascinating character. He is both funny and disturbing, and he represents the madness and chaos that Alice experiences in Wonderland.
