It is hard to guess what a Tolai hare weights. But we have the answer:
An adult Tolai hare (Lepus tolai) on average weights 1.59 kg (3.51 lbs).
The Tolai hare is from the family Leporidae (genus: Lepus). When reaching adult age, they grow up to 50.9 cm (1′ 9″). Usually, Tolai hares have 2 babies per litter.
As a reference: An average human weights in at 62 kg (137 lbs) and reaches an average size of 1.65m (5′ 5″). Humans spend 280 days (40 weeks) in the womb of their mother and reach around 75 years of age.
The tolai hare (Lepus tolai) is a species of hare found in Central Asia, Mongolia, and Northern and Central China. It inhabits semi-desert, steppes, rocky habitats, and forest meadows. It is relatively common, even in areas with heavy human disturbance, due to its fast reproductive rate. It is mainly active at dusk and at night but is occasionally active during the day.
