The snowshoe hare is found throughout most of North America. They are born precocial, meaning they are born with hair and are independent shortly after birth. Hares and jackrabbits are probably best known for their large ears and powerful hind jumping legs. It has the name “snowshoe” because of the large size of its hind feet and the marks its tail leaves.nnSpecifications:nn1: 1 scalennPolyurethane resin castn2-part skull (separate cranium and jaw)nnSkull Length 8.1 cm (3.1 in.)
