I had no idea that a short legged barmit could keep up with a rabbit. Good thing they aren’t as large as a coyote or wolf.

I cannot help but wonder how much more awesome this would have been if he had held his phone sideways! Ha!
I watched a martin hunting squirrels last fall for quite awhile in Idaho on an elk hunt. He was one athletic critter! I never did see him catch a squirrel but man could he move through the trees. Probably one of the coolest things I've seen in the woods.

Never would have guessed that outcome in a 100 yard dash with a hare.

Cottontails are not very fast. Jackrabbits are. I wonder how snowshoes compare?
