Dice's cottontail (Sylvilagus dicei) is a species of cottontail rabbit that is native to the Cordillera de Talamanca mountain range in Costa Rica and Panama. It is a large cottontail rabbit with black and brown fur, dull white undersides, a brown patch of fur on its throat and a small, barely visible black tail. It is found at elevations up to 3,800 metres (12,500 ft) and resides in páramo grasslands and cloud forest habitats. (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dice%27s_cottontail)
