The true jackalope is actually. The antelope jackrabbit (Lepus alleni) is a species of North American hare, found in Arizona (US), Chihuahua, Nayarit, Sinaloa and Sonora in Mexico. The legs are where the antelope jackrabbit gets its name, after the fast, leaping animals of the plains of Africa called antelopes. Its ears grow to be 2 to 8 inches when fully grown, and are not only used to hear but are also used to reduce and regulate body heat for survival in the hot conditions they live in. And no they don't have horns like an antelope, although their ears are often torn by thorn bushes or predators sometimes giving them the appearance of having horns.
