Jackalope

Lepus Antilocapra

A rare and elusive rabbit, the jackalope was first spotted in Wyoming in 1932. Despite their unassuming appearance, they are vivacious creatures and can run up to 60 mph. Strong hind legs and pronged antlers offer any defense the animal might need. They also possess an uncanny ability to mimic and throw sounds; pursuers may find their own voice coming from the opposite direction, drawing them away from the jackalope. The animals seem to take delight in the confusion and find any opportunity to sow chaos, seeking out hunters to befuddle or finding hikers to shock. Some even join in the campfire songs, leaping away to the sounds of frightened and confused campers.
