Tales of jackalopes were inspired by sightings of rabbits infected with the Shope papilloma virus also known as Epidermodysplasia verruciformis, which causes the growth of horn- and antler-like tumors in various places on the rabbit’s head and body. Wikipedia has a picture of one with “antlers” growing out of it’s mouth

Previous to 1960, Jackalopes were never seen in the coastal regions of Southern California.

Oddly enough in the 1960′s there was one of the largest herds of these ever seen in the mountains above Laguna Beach.

There were so many in fact, that you would often see them in the early morning nibbling on the tender greens in neighborhood gardens.

Then in the summer of 1971, just as mysteriously as they had arrived, they were gone.

Many old homes in Laguna Beach still have photos of their children feeding these cheerful animals.

The Jackelope is as real as they come. I remember when I was about 7 or 8, my Grandfather took us pheasant hunting on the Eastern Plains of Colorado. That’s when I first saw this wonderful animal. Needless to say Grandpa got so excited, took a shot at him & missed (Thankfully). Jack scampered away lightening fast, never did see him again the rest of the trip.

By the way, the answer on the question Bruce asked in comment n°4: it was Ronald Reagan.

It might be a wild guess, but I think that the Jacelope uses his antlers to impress the females – only the males do have antlers.

The guys at work thought this was great! Satire. Keep on writing like this and you may find yourself with a large fan club.

It could be satire, but the Jackelope has been a powerful symbol of the West. It is a legend that deserves some respect. It is funny, but to me the Jackelope is a mysterious creature.
