Adapted for cold, snowy environments, it features a dense silvery-brown coat, tufted ears, and large paws that function like snowshoes. Primarily nocturnal, these elusive animals are skilled predators, relying heavily on populations of snowshoe hares. Protected areas and conservation efforts are vital for maintaining their habitats and ensuring their survival, given their role in the ecological balance and biodiversity of their native regions.
