long ears
Hare's distinctive trait
Long ears is a nickname for a rabbit, donkey, or mule—animals distinguished by prominent ears.
The term appears in folk tales and rural speech: Old long ears got into the garden again.
It can also be a teasing reference to someone who eavesdrops or pays too close attention to others' conversations.
