The Great Tracker

With winter may be coming back, we had some snow last night. When you’re early enough, the large hoards of prey and predators living here won’t mess up your tracking practices. Here are a few samples.

European hare (brown hare), Lepus europaeus. Male, 4-5kg, 3-4 years, no visible winter fur. Obnoxious, not scared of foxes. Enjoys gardens winter and summer. Female gardeners not fond of him, see him as competitor.
