Well... They aren't really all fable!
From discovermagazine.com- (the article is actually about HPV.)
1932 – Reports of jackalopes—rabbits with horns—pique the interest of Richard Shope, a cancer researcher at the Rockefeller Institute. Working with Rous, he grinds up the tumors and injects the extract into other rabbits, which then develop the same deformity. This reveals that the “horns” are actually tumors caused by a contagious papillomavirus.

Her jewelry is so great! This piece caught my eye.
- Jackalope milk is particularly sought after because it is believed to be a powerful aphrodisiac (for which reason, the Jackalope is also sometimes referred to as the 'horny rabbit')
- crushed Jackalope horn is used as an active agent in a chemical adhesive. This glue is used to create Post-It notes
I know what I am going to be next Halloween!
