Snowshoe Hare

I flew around and there was nothing so I started battling all the pets in the area and I just got the snowshoe hare as a second pet to a lofty libram

flew the route several times this afternoon. Found a rat twice with a spider. Finally found the hare. Landed and it vanished.

Flew around for about 10 minutes and took everyone's advice. I battled the rats in Strahnbard, Lofty Librams in the Dalaran crater, and finally found it near the Giant Yetis.

Seems like it has been awhile since a post. I battled the rats several times with no success. Found a Snoeshoe Hare at 53,24 after a bit of flying around. Easy catch and got achievment Eastern Kingdom Safari.

Secondary on a rat Dalaran crater. Fought a bunch of other rats beforehand IDK if that does anything.

I captured this as I battled a rat in this area. The snowshoe hare was the additional pet to join the battle. So if you can't find the hare by itself to battle, don't get frustrated - try for a rat to see if the hare is the 2nd pet to battle!

Found @ 46.26 35.03 under the tree near Giant Yeti.

S/S breed is really good for PVE. In particular the Stratholme dungeon is full of undead boss bets. Rabbits and hares also work surprisingly well against magic pets due to the tick damage provided by stampede.

I grinded 3 S/S hares/rabbits for a PVP team, but it's in PVE these cuties really shine.

I came across some info about this elusive pet.

There's a trick to getting the Snowshoe Hare to spawn. 

Go to the Ruins of Alterac in Hillsbrad Foothills. Sweep the snowy areas N&S of the ruins. Look for clear white snow. Dont look in the ruins or brown areas. Now go to the town, Strahnbrad. Therell be 3 Rat BPs there. Kill them. That triggers hares to spawn. They can spawn as critters or BPs. Kill the critters. After 1 min they both will despawn. Repeat as needed. 

THREE HOURS of circling the ruins, killing every battle pet or non-battle critter! Half disappeared before I could even interact with them thanks to that stupid phasing thing. All I wanted was an S/S breed of ANY quality. Finally gave up and went to the crater. About five minutes killing every battle pet I could find (only ended up covering the top half of the crater) and I got it. It's Uncommon, but believe me when I say the stone will be worth not having to continue that search.

Found mine as a secondary pet to a rat in the Dalaran Crater.

Found mine as secondary pet to diseased bear cub.   If you battle the pet bear cubs that don't have them don't kill the mother bear (run away or shadow meld) new bear cubs will spawn to their mothers within 10 mins.  This is how ill farm the illusive s/s breed.  Happy hunting

Just got a rare one as a secondary pet to a [Rat] at the Dalaran Crater (Hillsbrad Foothills), if you have no luck at the ruins like me maybe this will work out for you instead. Good luck!

On a side note, the little brat doesnt follow you around and, after awhile, it...disappears   LOL Good fighter though.

So I finally got a rare snowshoe hare after what feels like forever camping out in alterac mountains (I read somewhere that they only appear when the weather is snowing. I never saw it snowing to verify). Anyhow, I read somewhere that these share a spawn with the rats in strahnbrad (east of alterac mountains). Basically, fly around in circles killing the rats and non combat hares and you should start seeing them. I had the best luck in the little strip just west of strahnbrad with all the trees. 

There is obviously a phasing issue, I can find one in the snow most times but it always fades when I get near it.  just opposite the cave where the Christmas Boss normally is.  Went to the huge hole and eventually found one but it was poor 

I just watched two pop up where it shows on the map, only to have them fade away and disappear before I had a chance to click on them.
