[貼圖] 輕巧優雅的棉尾兔

加拿大安大略的新漢堡(New Hamburg),氣溫降到0℃以下,一隻毛茸茸的棉尾兔(cottontail rabbit)仍在6吋深的積雪上嬉戲,牠歡快輕巧地踢腿蹬腳,朝著附近的森林裡去。這一幕,讓27歲的攝影師賈斯汀盧梭(Justin Russo)極為驚豔。

這種生活在美洲的棉尾兔,是北美洲最常見的兔子,通常在夜間才出沒,但是黎明和入夜前也是活躍時間,牠不必冬眠,奔跑時可以跳躍到15英呎高(約4.6公尺)、時速每小時18英里(約24公里),以逃避獵食者的追殺,而且被追時總以「之」字型奔跑,讓獵食者無法跟得上。



Run rabbit, it's freezing! Photographer captures cottontail making a dash through the Canadian wastes
  • Photographer Justin Russo, 27, snapped the creature in  Ontario, Canada
  • The cute creature looked desperate to escape the minus -5c temperatures

This cottontail rabbit looks desperate to get back to the warmth of his warren as he dashes through six inch deep snow.

The furry mammal was snapped as he kicked up his heels and bounded up a hill towards the cover of a nearby forest.
Photographer Justin Russo, 27, captured the creature's run for cover in New Hamburg, Ontario, Canada.


This cottontail rabbit didn't let sub-zero temperatures stop him frolicking about in six-inch deep snow

Mr Russo, who lives in nearby Waterloo, said: 'The snow was about 6 inches deep at the time and the temperature was around -5C.

'I had to guess which way the rabbit would run as it faced up a hill towards a forest.

'I assumed it would make its way to the safety of the trees and I was correct.
'The rabbit took off extremely fast up the slope in a straight line right towards the forest, like I anticipated.

The chilly rabbit quickly made his way to the cover of a nearby forest, no doubt trying make it to his cosy warren

'I was amazed how fast it was and how fluid its stride was.
'When I looked back at my shots and saw that I had captured it in full stride and with its hind legs in front, I was impressed.

'They really show what this animal is capable of.
'I feel priviliged to have seen this rabbit enjoying its own environment and it seemed to love feeling free in the great outdoors.'

以‵時速每小時18英里′正是‵跑得快、好世界′也是逃避追殺,求生自保最佳方法。牠跳躍及奔跑的姿態很美,和很可愛!!謝謝分享!!!
