Kehaar is a black-headed seagull with an Eastern European accent, that Hazel and the others helped nurse back to health after he was injured by the Nuthanger Farm cat, Tab. At first, Kehaar was cautious and wanted nothing to do with them, but in time he befriended the Watership Down rabbits and helped them with several quests. He takes a liking to Bigwig, (whom he sometimes calls 'plump rabbit'), and other straight talking rabbits like Silver, but is not fond of "clever" rabbits like Blackberry.
