Answer: Predation

Step-by-step explanation:

The snowshoe hare is a rabbit species which is found in the colder regions whose fur turns white in winter months.

This allows the rabbit to mix into the environment and protect them from predation. This phenomenon allows the rabbit to be protected and the predators are not able to see them as the color of rabbit and environment is same.

Hence, this adaptation is favorable in predation and the animal can move from lace in search of their food without being caught by the predators.
