Iepure de patagonia

The Patagonia hare is an herbivorous mammal from the Leporidae family, with remarkable adaptability to semi-arid environments. It has a short tail, long ears, and strong legs that help it jump quickly and escape predators. It is mainly active during twilight and night, feeding on grasses, leaves, and roots. It hides in low vegetation and burrows dug into the ground for protection.
