Alaskan hare
[edit]
- ... that the coats of Alaskan hares (pictured) are white during the winter but grey-brown during the summer?

- Comment: This was originally intended to involve the Alaska Rabbit article too, but just couldn't dig the sources for an expansion there out of Google.
5x expanded by Miyagawa (talk). Self nominated at 21:51, 2 March 2013 (UTC).
Looks good to me. Five times expansion confirmed on 1 March, length good, sources are reputable and hook fact is cited. Image is confirmed PD. The only thing I'd say is that the article cited says "grey-brown" and not just brown - though I'd probably not be able to tell the difference! - Dumelow (talk) 22:39, 2 March 2013 (UTC)
