Snowshoe hare

[Speckle55]

Find the area of lots of tracks/trails/bunny runs n poop on forest floor

then i look for areas that are bedding areas .. thick bush/young white spruce tree's

then go back and hunt at different times of year

once i am in the areas that hold lots of hare

i will so down and move slowly thru that area(,22LR semi Rem 597)

my head will move up and down taking as many angles of looking as possible

do not look at the forest look into the forest

here are some picture of them in bedding areas and hunting

if the food is good and your in a up year it can be lots of fun

as always this is

An interesting note: The whitetailed jackrabbit (actually a hare), found throughout Wyoming is a close cousin to the snowshoe hare and turns white in the winter, except for their black tipped ears. Their digestive system adds enzymes to the poop so that it ferments and they can eat it during times when needed.
We have about a dozen running around our house here.

All rabbits are coprophagous. They tend to do their business in neat little piles so they can come back later for a snack.

That's why rabbits are so frequently heavily infested with worms.

A little wine, cracked pepper, juniper berries, rosemary, thyme and your getting close to Hasenpfeffer.

When lived in Fairbanks, AK, we used to hunt them with slingshots. They are great eating.
