And the hare, because he cheweth the cud, but divideth not the hoof; he is unclean unto you.}} Although the term 'chewing the cud' usually means rumination (as seen in cows, for example), skeptics have claimed this is wrong in regards to rabbits and coney behavior. However, these animals do in fact use a similar process called refection. The underlying Hebrew words which are translated as 'chewing the cud' in the King James bible are actually much broader in scope and mean simply 'to bring up' which is something both rumination and refection do.<ref>https://creation.com/do-rabbits-chew-their-cud</ref><ref>http://carm.org/bible-difficulties/genesis-deuteronomy/do-badger-and-rabbit-chew-cud</ref> This issue in translation is similar to the bats and fowl problem mentioned above.
