The snowshoe hare changes its fur to white in the winter, and back to brown (with a white underbelly in the summer. If it is an outdoor rabbit, it can get sunburn, if it's black, its fur will turn a brown color, it isn't really dangerous, but make sure they have shade, and the color will become normal again after she/he gets their winter coat

Some wild rabbits are brown in the summer and white in the winter. All rabbits go through moults, which changes their appearance somewhat; however, some rabbits (including pet rabbits) don't usually change their coat colours.

Yes. It can become tricker during winter and lighter during summer.

Not all rabbits and hares change fur color, but in areas such as a tundra, they need to change fur color in order to avoid predators. Domestic rabbits do not change fur color, though.
