Best Answer

The March Hare is a character in Lewis Carroll's book, Alice's Adventures in Wonderland, but he also appears in Through the Looking Glass, where he has the name Haigha (pronounced 'hare').

He is most famous for being at the Mad Tea Party in Chapter 7 of Alice's Adventures, which is being held at his house. Apart from Alice, the other guests are the Dormouse and the Hatter.

At the tea party, the March Hare famously offers Alice some wine, despite the fact that there isn't any and also offers here 'more tea' even though she is yet to have some. He is also chastised by the Hatter for having put butter into the Hatter's watch.

The inspiration for the character was the phrase 'mad as a March hare', which stems from a folk belief that Hares go a bit bonkers in the mating season.
