Antelope Jackrabbit...

Suddenly this big fellow appeared. Probably the closest thing to a Jackalope that I have ever seen. (the King Kong of the rabbit world) The Antelope Jackrabbit is a species of North American hare.

 

Antelope jackrabbits can run as fast as 45 miles per hour, and can jump as high as five-feet and as far as 22-feet.

They weigh between nine to 10 pounds, and range from 18 to 24-inches in length, with a tail up to four inches. The whitish ears, grow as long as eight inches. Amazing to see in the wild!
