Dr. Hare

Dr. Hare is the villian of 24 Carrot Island and a recurring character in the player's journey in Poptropica. He wears a pink bunny suit, complete with large pointy ears, a mask with whiskers, and body. Other noticeable features on him are the white fluffy bobtail and green goggles.

Rabbot Rising
Dr. Hare tried to steal all of 24 Carrot Island's carrots, which was the island's main economic income, thus making the island's economic status go to an all-time low. He kidnapped four Poptropicans, which he then hypnotized using Drone Ears. He planned to use a giant robotic rabbit, which he calls a Rabbot to fly into orbit and use it to control the minds of everyone in Poptropica. This criminal planned to use the kidnapped Poptropicans as slaves to help him fuel up his Rabbot with carrot fuel.

Carrots Depleted
Just as things were looking good for Dr. Hare, a Poptropican discovered Dr. Hare's hideout in a dirty factory. The Poptropican snuck in, turned off the mind-controlled Drone Ears of Dr. Hare's workers, then found and put on some Drone Ears for themself as a disguise to pretend that the Poptropican was a factory worker too.

The evil mastermind, Dr. Hare, was fooled and thought this Poptropican was just one of the slaves he had captured and were working for him, so he told the Poptropican to get to the controls and launch the Rabbot. This Poptropican went to the controls, but didn't obey the bad bunny. Instead, not only did the Poptropican launch the Rabbot to space, they forced it to crash it into several asteroids. The Rabbot was destroyed, and Dr. Hare, who was sitting in the cockpit of the Rabbot spacecraft, floated out into space never to be seen again.

After this wild scenario, the carrot farms on 24 Carrot Island went back to business. The mayor was so glad that their island was saved. The Poptropican who had brought them prosperity was awarded a medallion for their good works.

Return
Dr. Hare also returned in Reality TV Island. He was first mentioned in a magazine, which had a sentence next to Dr. Hare's picture saying "Dr. Hare. Is he still in space?" Also in the magazine, in the local tv section, he has a show called "Cooking with Dr.Hare". He can also sometimes be a competitor on the show, and will be eager to vote you out.

Poptropica Creator
Dr. Hare is also a Poptropica Creator who posts game updates on the Poptropica Creators' Blog (http://blog.poptropica.com/). This means that he works for the Poptropica game under the pen name of 'Dr. Hare'.

His real name is Jordan Leary. Proof of this comes from searching jordanleary on the Avatar Studio, because it comes up with a pink bunny with the display name of Dr. Hare. In fact, because he has his own Poptropica account, some lucky players have been able to spot him in Multiverse rooms.
