It's like that in Spanish too. I found it kind of surprising that Russian uses the female form of an animal.

In English, it is that way sometimes too. People will often refer to animals with male pronouns.

@@empresseternity1 Actually, i find that this is true depending on the animal in question: it all depends on what "gender" the general public sees to be the "right" one, due to pop culture and stuff. For example: -Dogs are masculine, so "he" is often used (e.g: "Wow, you have a big dog! *He* looks so friendly!") used, yet cats are feminine, so "she" is used instead (e.g: "Woah, your cat is so gentle. Is *she* a rescue, or from a breeder?").

HenrikPachunke In finnish rhino is "sarvikuono" which means horn nose. Lazy, right?

Same in dutch Neushoorn

Oh, why do you say it like fedOr then?

Dante Quizás he said because it was hard for his girlfriend or maybe people around him to pronounce. He mentioned it in another video

Заяц is hare

I am not native russian, but yes, if I remember correctly then the word he mentions here for horse means any horse, but there is at least anothet word for horse in russian: конь. But looking at dictionary, it seems that конь is more of a horse used for riding. The word in the dictionary for mare seems to be кобыла while for stallion, again in the dictionary, seems to be жеребе́ц. But that is just on the dictionary, so if I am wrong, then any native speaker can correct me, because sometimes russian vocabulary is not so simple

I don't think so, I think it's neutral!

Кошка собака корова курица лошадь. Медведь волк лиса заяц белка лев тигр жираф носорог бегемот змея

krolik would be rabbit, and заяц is a hare I believe. 🤔
