The white rabbit looks pretty fat. maybe it has a burrow nearby so its not wondering off too far from it. So even if the temp goes down to -41C (burrr that's around -42F), if it has a dry well padded burrow (underground), it will be able to get out of the extreme cold. Hare I don't think makes burrows so it'll have a tougher time.
Pretty cute.

It appears if the white one is not domesticated, it may be a snowshoe hare which is actually common.
The other one, brown with big ears is the white tailed jackrabbit. This latter we definitely see this wild type quite often --at night/dusk/sunset.Last edited by shootingstar; 12-08-2013 at 07:13 PM.
