The european species mezei nyúl is the european hare, Lepus europaeus.

I wish people who suggested the name change did some research.
The european rabbit, to which cottontails resemble are refered to as "üregi nyúl" correctly, and the cottontail species, for example the florida cottontail is "floridai üreginyúl".
I'm not sure wich cottontail species the game rabbit is based on but the name is wrong.
Cottontail rabbit =/= mezei nyúl
