Snowshoe Hare



I'm a snowshoe hare. A furry mammal. See my feet? They're long and wide just like snowshoes. That's how I got my name, haha! My fur changes color to help me hide from predators, animals that might try to catch me. In spring and summer I'm dark brown, so I can hide in the shadows. In winter, I put on my whitest white, to blend in with the snow. That's called camouflage.
