Montana wildlife: Cottontail rabbit (Sylvilagus spec.)

August 06, 2015  •  Leave a Comment

I've looked at lots of images of mountain cottontails (Sylvilagus nuttallii) and desert cottontails (Sylvilagus audubonii) to try and figure out what species I photographed. Long story short: I can't really tell the difference between the two... Regardless, I am happy with the images! :)
