Lepus arcticus

Arctic Hare

Schneehase

The Arctic hare lives in both mountainous and lowland areas. It likes places where plants grow quickly during the short summer season. For the winter, it prefers sheltered areas where it does not have to dig in deep snow to search for food. Dempster Highway, Tombstone area, Yukon, Canada
