		Hares are remarkably prolific, pairing when scarcely a year old, and the female bringing forth several broods in the year, each consisting of from two to five leverets (from the Fr.
		Hares (and rabbits) have a cosmopolitan distribution with the exception of Madagascar and Australasia; and are now divided into numerous genera and subgenera, mentioned in the article FIG.

		Mountain hares graze on heather, bilberry, twigs of gorse, juniper, grasses, herbs and occasionally, farm crops.
		Mountain hares are mainly solitary, but in severe weather, or at good food sites, may congregate in large groups of up to 70.

	Peatlands \| Wildlife \| Mammals \| Irish Hare
		The Irish hare only occurs in Ireland – it is a sub-species of the mountain hare which occurs in the rest of the UK.
		The Irish hare is a native species with a russet brown coat, long ears with fl tips and eyes set high in the head, which gives it a wide field of view for evading predators.
		Historically the Irish hare was widespread and common throughout Ireland, though populations have undergone a substantial decline in the last 10-20 years.

		The hares living in the southern part of the Arctic move into the forests that border the tundra (Arctic plain) at the onset of winter, which give them some protection from the cold winds.
		Although this is a longer gestation period than is usual for hares, the extra time spent developing in the mother’s womb means that the leverets are well developed at birth, which increases their chances of survival in the harsh environment.
		Hares appear often in the cave paintings of prehistoric civilizations.

		We live-trapped 41 mountain hares in early winter, fitted each female with a radio-transmitter and gave alternate hares an injection of Ivermectin — a drug that kills intestinal parasites such as T.

		The brown hare is the larger of the two species of hares that occur in Britain (the other species being the mountain hare).
		Brown hares were once a common feature of the English lowland landscape but since the 1960s their population has fallen perhaps by as much as 75%.
		The reasons for the decline of the brown hare are unclear but may involve the increased mechanisation of farming and the change from traditionally managed mixed farming with smaller fields to more intensive farming with large fields and blocks of single crops.

	Epsilon Dissertations and Graduate Theses Archive - Life and death of the mountain hare in the boreal forest of Sweden
		Mountain hare survival was synchronized with the abundance of small rodents; as vole density decreased, hare mortality increased.
		My results suggest, in accordance with other studies, that mountain hare population dynamics in the boreal forest of Sweden are driven by predation as suggested by the alternative prey hypothesis.
		An individual’s contribution to coming generations will thus mainly be made in the area where it was born. I suggest that the hare’s accumulated experience of an area, rather than physical resources, may explain the adult hares’ annually sedentary behaviour and, in effect, their high survival rate.

		Mountain hares live in `forms` (depressions in the ground) and can be seen in large groups of between 20 and 70 in snowy weather when they gather to shelter or feed.
