Answer by  JimIngram (115)

Two primary species of rabbits in the United States are jackrabbits and eastern cottontail rabbits. The term eastern is however misleading. The term eastern is misleading because the eastern cottontail species is actually spread throughout the easter portion of the United states and the midwest, giving them a wider range than the name suggests.
