It's a rabbit with antlers. That much we know for sure. But there are so many stories about the jackalope how do we know fact from fiction?

Jackalope hunting licenses can be obtained from the Douglas Wyoming Chamber of Commerce, though the hunting of jackalopes is restricted to the hours of midnight to 2 am on June 31. Hunters are advised to wear stovepipes on their legs in case the creature charges with their antlers.  According to the fact sheet accompanying the official hunting license, "They are normally peaceful, but become a 'bundle of fury' if startled or cornered, using their knife-like horns to the greatest advantage." They probably mean antlers rather than horns, but whatever.
