Beschrijving
The Hare Emancipates her Children (previously The Hare Instructs his Sons). A mother hare does not want to provide for her children any longer. She asks them to look in her eyes and says, “You have such big eyes (long whiskers) now, you can take care of yourselves.” Since then, hares care for their young only for a short time [cf. J61].
