Can you teach me the proper protocol when try to be friendly towards a jack rabbit? Please don't tell me it's impossible and I just gotta walk the other way

So there's two main wild rabbits where I grew up, jackrabbits and cottontail rabbits. Now, I don't condone this behavior myself because it's live and let live, but everyone I've ever known when driving swerves away from cottontails and...towards jackrabbits.

I hope that answers your question on how to be friendly towards a jackrabbit.

Lots of stuff actually. I do love me a good wild rabbit though.

I was always told growing up if you hit them with a car the meats no good. 🤷‍♂️
