White mountain hare

White in winter, brown in summer, it is the king of camouflage. Unseen, uncaught by predators, with an extremely austere lifestyle, it survives the harsh conditions of high altitudes. And that's not surprising, as it was already thriving during the Ice Age!

White mountain hare females even started to interbreed with European brown hare males. Will the mountain hares be able to survive as a species?
