Description
North americas most common "mythical beast" is a guinea pig. Like their relatives, the maras from south america they look only on the first view like rabbit.Beside this western jackalope there are also a robust species that only lives in Canada and Alaska and one in the andean mountain.
During the middle ages there was also a genus in Eurasia.

Ach, ja! Die eurasische Art ist der Wolpertinger, richtig? Ich hörte, es solle neben dem Deutschen noch ein ähnliches Wesen in Schweden geben!

Ja, aber ich muss mich nachträglich korrigieren, die Europäische Art ist eine aus Amerika eingeschleppte Unterart, Meerschweinchenverwandte gibt es in Europa natürlicherweise nicht

Nicht einmal Pikas.
Hatte mich sowieso verwirrt.

I like how the design makes it plausible in real life and simultaneously accurate enough to the legend to recognizable.
One question. Are the horns actual horns (kind of like those from Ceratogaulus; with bony cores and everything) or are they more akin to rhinoceros (semi-bony core and what appears to be hair) or babirusa (teeth) "horns"?

Thanks
The horns are somewhere between Ceratogaulus and rhinos, there is a bony core, but it's just support the half of the antlers.

Pseudolepus occidentalis. But newer research assumes that it was maybe just a supspecies of the canadian jackelope, because the viking bring this animals from america back home.

The females have also horns, but they are a bit smaller, the candian species have more robust horns, and here the horns have the same size in both genders.

There really is a horned rabbit in the fossil record but they only had one horn... at least that is how I remember it

I know, the possibility of rodent-horns was a reason for me to create this animal.

This is a particularly good mash up, great anatomy, very believable

Perhaps the Genus for Europe could be named Wolpertinger or Elwedritschen. Sure these "rabbits" have no wings but some depictions looked close to the jackalope.

Ja so hatte ich mir das gedacht

Irgendeine Idee gehabt bezüglich der "Flügel" für den Wolpertinger?

Menschen übertreiben gerne...
Und Jackalopen können weit springen.

Nicht vielleicht die Fähigkeit dass dieser Zweig an den Schultern Fell hat welches weit abstehen kann?

Yes it's one and the same world (to be exact, every project of mine fit into the same world, there are just temporal and spatial differences)
