The Snowshoe Hare is a medium-sized rabbit found in North America, particularly in forested and tundra regions. It is known for its large hind feet, which help it move easily through deep snow. The fur of the Snowshoe Hare changes color with the seasons, turning brown or gray in summer and white in winter for camouflage.
These hares are herbivores, primarily feeding on grasses, leaves, and bark. They are most active during dawn and dusk, using their keen senses to avoid predators such as lynxes and foxes. Snowshoe Hares play a vital role in their ecosystem, serving as prey for various animals.
