The relationship between a Canadian lynx and a snowshoe hare is an example of?

The relationship between a Canadian lynx and a snowshoe hare is an example of predator-prey dynamics. The lynx preys on the snowshoe hare as a food source, and the population sizes of both species are interdependent, with fluctuations in one population impacting the other.


The life cycle of the snowshoe hare?

The snowshoe hare has a typical life cycle similar to other hares. They are born in the spring and reach sexual maturity at around one year of age. They breed during the spring and summer months, producing multiple litters with a gestation period of about 36 days. Snowshoe hares have a lifespan of about 1-5 years in the wild.


How do snowshoe hares breathe?

Snowshoe hares breathe out of the nostrils in their nose. This type of hare is found in forests in North America and England.


Why does the snowshoe hare turn a rusty brown colour in the summer?

This is natures way of helping the hare defend itself. A white animal in the greens and browns of summer foliage would stand out to predators. The Hare changes color so as to blend in and is better able to hide.


If an entire lynx population disappears what is likely to happen to the hare population on which it preys?

When the snowshoe rabbits become scarce, the lynx population is low as well. Its cause the Snowshoe rabbit is the main prey of the Canada lynx. This explains that some lynx starve 2 death when they cann't eat the Snowshoe hare. Also, when female lynx are in a bad condition cause they're starved, some cann't breed. In conclusion, whenever the Snowshoe rabbit's population decreased, the Lynx population was low also.
