Meet the Snowshoe Hare
Moves Like a Flicker. Gone Like a Whisper.
Snowshoe Hares are some of the fastest animals in the forest.
Their powerful back legs help them leap up to 10 feet in a single bound. In winter, their fur turns white to blend into snowy landscapes. In summer, it turns brown to match the forest floor.
Their oversized feet act like natural snowshoes, helping them run across deep snow without sinking.
