On the Rise
Denali National Park
The rapid rise and fall of the Snowshoe Hare population in Denali is a fascinating study of nature's constant evolution.

But soon the lynx population too will explode, and the hare's food sources will become challenged. And the cycle will restart. Photo © copyright by Ed Fuhr.
