The Jackalope
In the 1930s, Douglas Herrick and his brother, hunters with taxidermy skills, popularized the American jackalope by grafting deer antlers onto a jackrabbit carcass and selling the combination to a local hotel in Douglas, Wyoming.
One of the more "I can't believe this isn't actually real" cryptids. What's more believable, a rabbit with antlers, or the giraffe; a leopard-moose-camel with a 14 foot neck?
