The jackalope is a mythical creature of North American folklore, often described as a jackrabbit with antelope horns. The name itself is a portmanteau of “jackrabbit” and “antelope.” This legendary animal has captured imaginations for generations and is considered one of the most iconic “fearsome critters” in American tall tales.
Some believe the origin of the jackalope myth may stem from real rabbits afflicted by the Shope papilloma virus, a disease that causes horn-like growths to appear on the heads of rabbits, potentially inspiring early stories of horned hares.
