What is a "coney"?

The "coney" is a small mammal commonly known as the European rabbit (Oryctolagus cuniculus), characterized by its soft fur, long ears, and distinctive hopping gait. European rabbits are herbivorous animals that are known for their ability to burrow, creating complex networks of tunnels called warrens for protection and shelter. They have a diverse range of coat colors, including brown, gray, and white, and are known for their highly adaptable nature, being able to thrive in various habitats such as grasslands, forests, and even urban environments. European rabbits are social animals that typically live in large groups called colonies or warrens, and they are known for their rapid reproductive rate, with females capable of producing multiple litters of young each year.
