*** About Snowshoe Hare: The snowshoe hare, known for its large hind feet and adaptive winter camouflage, is a vital part of the North American boreal forests. In summer, their fur is a rusty brown, turning to a brilliant white during winter to provide excellent camouflage against the snow. These hares are primarily nocturnal and are famed for their ability to elude predators with incredible bursts of speed. Their large feet act like snowshoes, supporting them on the surface of deep snow, a crucial adaptation for survival in their frosty habitat.
