This species is distributed from Fennoscandiato eastern Siberia; in addition there are isolated mountain populations in the Alps, Ireland, Scotland, the Baltics, northeastern Poland and Hokkaidō. It have been shown that the diet of the mountain hare varies from region to region, in northern ...
Currently, mountain hare and brown hare distribution overlap across the southern half of Sweden, which comprises the entire known range of the heath hare subspecies (cf. Bergengren, 1969). This distributional overlap is a conservation concern, since brown hare may outcompete mountain hare where the...

and there is a need to better understand the biodiversity trade-offs associated with woodland expansion.Using the Cairngorm National Park (CNP) in northeast Scotland as a case study, we assessed how proposed woodland expansion targets might affect the distribution of mountain hares, an open moorland...
Predation is unlikely to be important in mountain hare populations in Scotland as most hares occur on sporting estates where predators are controlled, but this hypothesis remains to be experimentally tested. There is, however, emerging experimental evidence that some Scottish mountain hare populations ...
In addition, through visual inspection, this method has a better suppression effect on background noise in mountainous areas, and the extracted farmland parcels are closer to the actual distribution of the ground farmland. Keywords: mountainous areas; precise farmland parcel; very-high-resolution (...
