I saw this on my news feed too. But I assumed it was clickbait.

Mouse meat. Mouse antlers. Or both????  And what will be the tag limit?

Can't be the same requirements for a mouse.  Antlers have to be proportional to the size of the mouse.   

Definitely save on wall space.

My late grandfather had a jack-a-lope on his wall in basement TV room.

Cousin had one also.  He took it down to clean it, and left the room only to come back to it in shreds. Guess his dog thought it was a toy.

I shot this for the last issue of Field & Stream.  Sworn to secrecy as where it was bagged.

I have discovered that one of the last wild jackalope populations in the Northeast exists on my property.

First introduced to Wyoming by the Messrs. Herrick, there are a few pockets of jackalopes (Lepus antilocapra wyomingensis) throughout the continent where microclimates best mimic their natural environment in the Principality of Florin.

Though they are protected, occasionally you can get a nuisance permit. You see, when a male jackalope reaches a venerable age, he takes to stealing whisky, cigars and rhubarb pie from local cabins. And since they can often mimic human voices, a drunk jackalope will sit outside your window and taunt you by disparaging the quality of your cigars. Strangely, he will happily eat the most mundane rhubarb pie.

Since spring, I have been kept up at night by a particularly cruel jack insulting my Crown Royal and cheap Dominican cigars. To make it worse, he’s been doing so by imitating my Canadian accent. Bastard.

I applied for a permit.

Official jackalope season is only one day a year — June 31, from midnight to 2 a.m. — and to qualify the hunter must have an IQ greater than 50 but not over 82. The only allowed weapon is a slingshot made from the crotch of a dead elm and hockey elastics loaded with fools gold. Killing a jackalope isn’t easy.

You are allowed to bait them, so I put out a 30-year-old Laphroaig and a fake cuban Romeo that I had been saving for a special occasion. He took the bait.

At 1:17 a.m., I saw a little movement near the bottle and heard, “Finally something decent, eh.” I listened as he poured three toes of whisky and fired up a match to light the cigar. As the flame lighted up his face, our eyes met. He just had time to whisper, “You clever hoser,” as I let loose.

Pretty happy with the way the mount turned out.
