The Individual Behaviour of the Arctic Hare

Back

Wind Storm

When feeding in a wind storm, Arctic hares (Lepus arcticus) will feed with their backs to the wind. When it's time to find a new food source, they will turn and shake off the drifted snow before moving upwind to a new spot, where they will again turn their backs to the wind before feeding.
