Tietoa brown hare and wild rabbitjahdista
The brown hare is larger than the native mountain hare and stays in the lowlands. Hunting is done the same way as for mountain hare, with running hounds or stalking.
The brown hare does not turn white in winter, which distinguishes it from the mountain hare. It is a non-native species, and harvesting is desirable from a management perspective.
