This is a project intended to gauge the southern range limit of snowshoe hares in Ontario, as well as the timing of their coat colour change and how this is related to snowfall. Please submit your sightings of snowshoe hares in Ontario! Observations must include a photo. If you'd like, you can record the colour of the snowshoe hare's fur and whether there is snow cover on the ground at the time of your sighting, but this extra information is not mandatory.
This project is being conducted by Victoria Reimer, an undergraduate student at Trent University, who is doing this project as part of a conservation biology placement course.
