A snowshoe, for one, is a type of footwear used for walking on snow. It consists of a frame of lightweight material, usually wood or plastic, with a webbing of leather, rawhide, or rubber stretched across it. The webbing is designed to distribute the weight of the wearer over a larger area, allowing them to walk on top of the snow without sinking in. The HARE is a mammal that is well adapted to living in cold climates and is often seen wearing snowshoes in the winter.
