Spoiler alert: Mr. Hare is actually a man dressed in a bunny costume.
In addition to the bunny search, the holiday tradition includes a look at animals at the preserve enjoying their Easter treats.
Safari West has been closed due to the pandemic but didn't want to end the yearly event, so they put it on social media for the first time to allow people to join in the search.

Mr. Hare got lost at Safari West on Sunday morning while out hiding Easter eggs. In the video, two staff members search the wildlife preserve for the wayward rabbit. Along the way, we catch up with various animals, some devouring their Easter goodies, while others seem to have more fun playing around with them.
Animals featured in the video include a striped hyena, a warthog and patas monkeys. The video also shows a red river hog, a wild member of the pig family, really enjoying a dyed ostrich egg.
In the end, Mr. Hare is found safe. Staff at Safari West say they're getting him a GPS for next year.
