The lifespan of the European hare (Lepus europaeus P.) is affected by a number of negative
factors, including pollutants. In this paper, the individual and joint influence of age and habitat
(elevation and distance from the thermal power plant - TPP) on pathomorphological findings
of hares shot during three hunting seasons was investigated. Pathomorphological changes
were found in 95.12% of hares. In hares up to 1 year of age, the changes were predominant
in the lungs, and in older hares, in the kidneys. Degenerative changes in kidneys and liver and
inflammatory changes in kidneys and lungs were considered important most in discussing the
influence of chemical pollution. The proximity of TPP influenced the type of changes in the
liver. A significant joint effect of age and elevation on the type of changes in the lungs of
adult hares and on the heart of young hares was found. Elevation and distance from TPP had
a joint effect on the occurrence of changes in the lungs, intestin...es, and heart in hares from
the field farther from TPP. The results indicate that the hares were highly exposed to chemical
pollutants that may affect their immunity, and lifespan.
