Anyone here familiar with this creature? Is it mischievous or not? Any additional information will be very much appreciated. Thank you!

As far as I know, a Jackalope is like a normal jack rabbit, just with horns. From everything I've heard, there is nothing remarkable about it just the horns.

Yes I do. It's fake. It is a joke from some taxidermist. He just put a couple animal parts together.

So the legend about the antelope-horned jack rabbit is a fake one?

Yes, Jackie is a fake. I've seen many of them.

HOWEVER... as a composite creature one could be created and ensouled, and stories can of course be made, and thus Jackie comes alive.

My uncle has a jackelope that he takes around on vacations and takes pictures with. Of course, another uncle does the same with a bigfoot and some photography tricks. Both are meant as jokes, but they feed into the energy unconsciously...

So then, whether it is real or fake is a matter of personal viewpoint. I don't know any stories about the creature myself, just have seen several stuffed ones in stores.

while the creature is indeed a fake, the stories say that it is quick, and that it is passive by nature. Jackalopes tend to disappear once spotted in the stories.
