harelike

Like a bunny

Resembling or characteristic of a hare—the long-eared, swift-running relative of the rabbit.

The word typically describes physical features like elongated ears or a nervous, alert demeanor: harelike eyes darting around the room.

It can also suggest speed or skittishness: She made a harelike dash for the exit.
