Snowshoe Hare

Detail below..

“ Long before coming to Kachemak Bay, I took a serious look at Snowshoe Hares living in this great state of Alaska. Snowshoe hares are an important indicator to the health of a large variety of predatory animals. If the hares are abundant or in a state of decline, the same will apply to animals like lynx, wolves, owls, and hawks. ”
