I don't buy it, not real. Pretty sure I would've seen or heard about it way before now.

Did an image search with the pic,not one bonafide news article.

There were a lot of post cards back in the 40's and 50's of crazy things like this and huge jackrabbits with guys riding them like a horse etc. I remember seeing a lot of them going through old boxes of photos. MM

When you guys start picking these critters out of your radiators don't say I didn't warn you.
Also, the rhinocerus problem we've been having.
