The Arctic hare, also known as the Mountain Hare or Wild Arctic Rabbit, is a fascinating creature that has adapted to survive in some of the harshest environments on Earth. With its white winter coat and close-up headshot, this adult hare blends seamlessly into the snowy landscapes of Strathspey in Cairngorm National Park. In contrast, during the summer months, this resilient animal dons a brownish-gray coat while sitting on moorland in Peak District, Derbyshire. It's incredible how their fur changes with the seasons to provide camouflage and protection. Venturing further north to Kong Oscar Fjord in Northeast Greenland, we encounter an adult Arctic hare against the stunning backdrop of Flower Bay. These Polar Regions are home to these magnificent creatures who leave behind footprints illuminated by the ethereal Northern lights dancing above Senja. Northern Manitoba in Canada is another habitat where you can spot these majestic hares. They navigate through snow-covered landscapes with ease and grace. Traveling even farther north to Ittoqqortoomiit in Northeast Greenland brings us face-to-face with an Arctic hare portrait. This subspecies called Lepus arcticus groenlandicus showcases its unique features amidst February's icy surroundings. These captivating images remind us of the beauty and diversity found within our planet's wildlife. Whether it be through colour lithographs or engravings like those created by John James Audubon back in 1841, people have long been fascinated by these remarkable creatures that call the Arctic their home. From their ability to adapt to extreme conditions to their striking appearance, there is no doubt that wild they are truly extraordinary animals worth cherishing and protecting for generations to come.
