rabbit, hare
兎 centers on the animal rabbit or hare, with no major abstract extensions.
兎 is a pictograph of a rabbit, with the modern form retaining a stylized head, body, and legs. The inner dot may represent the tail or an ear.
The top stroke suggests a rabbit's ear, the boxy middle its body, and the lower strokes its legs. The dot inside is its fluffy tail.
For ト, imagine a rabbit hopping onto a toe: toe -> ト, and the rabbit lands softly.
