ZEBALLOS, Horacio et al. European hare Lepus europaeus (Lagomorpha: Leporidae) an invasive species in Peru. Rev. peru biol. [online]. 2012, vol.19, n.3, pp.267-273. ISSN 1727-9933.

We describe the current distribution of the European hare, Lepus europaeus, in Peru which currently covers the highlands, Andean valleys, surrounding areas of the Titicaca Lake and coastal irrigations; in Arequipa, Cusco, Moquegua, Puno and Tacna departments. Based on its current distribution we developed models of potential distribution of this species, which would forecast this species in northern Peru. We make recommendations on the main issues that should be studied in Peru, and the possible consequences of their invasive process of in Peru
