An “evolved” hare species with kangaroo-like hind legs! Purely nocturnal, these vegetarian creatures live in pairs and are usually part of large communities that live in sandy soil burrows.
If you ever get the chance to stay at Ndutu Lodge (Ngorongoro Conservation Area, Tanzania), you are more than likely to see them at night. The springhare’s eyes shine brightly in a spotlight, so you won’t have to search for them long!
