Baby Mara

Have you heard of a Mara? They're also known as Patagonian Hares, and two of them were just born at a zoo in Portugal..... new bunny-like babies, born just in time for Easter. :-)

Last Sunday, April 17th, two Maras, or Patagonian Hares, were born at Portugal's St. Ignatius Zoo. One of the tiny Maras was rejected by its mother and keepers stepped in to hand rear the little one for the time being. If all continues to go well, keepers expect the baby to rejoin its brother and parents soon. Maras are listed as near threatened by the IUCN due to habitat loss and sharing of their territory with European hares which were introduced to South America by humans.
