EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the essence of a European hare (Lepus europaeus) in its natural habitat. The hare, with its sleek brown fur and alert posture, sits gracefully amidst a picturesque field. Native to northern, central, and western Europe as well as western Asia, this species thrives in open countryside environments. During the summer months, the European hare sustains itself by feasting on grass and herbs. However, when winter arrives and vegetation becomes scarce, it adapts by consuming twigs and bark for nourishment. This remarkable ability showcases its resilience in challenging conditions. While this agile creature roams freely across vast landscapes, it faces threats from predators such as golden eagles soaring above or red foxes and wolves lurking nearby. Yet despite these dangers, the European hare remains vigilant with ears pricked up high. As an integral part of Europe's diverse fauna, this mammal belongs to the leporid family known for their biological significance. Its presence adds beauty to our surroundings while contributing to ecological balance. This stunning image is brought to you by BILDAGENTUR-ONLINE/MCPHOTO-HUWILER/SCIENCE PHOTO LIBRARY—a testament to their dedication in capturing nature's wonders through photography without commercial intent. Let this mesmerizing print transport you into the enchanting world of wildlife where every detail tells a story waiting to be discovered.
