The following link takes you to the page that tells the whole story, but I believe this is a very good idea.  They are looking into a proposal to re-introduce Grey Prairie Jackalopes into our Federal Parks, beginning in Yellowstone and Grand Teton.

Most of us have seen some of the taxidermy varieties at places we have shopped, but they vary quite a bit from the real thing.  There have not been any of the Prairie variety found in the United States since the mid 1700’s, but lately a small group was discovered just across the Canadian Border, north of  Central Montana.

Let’s hope they can capture a few breeding pairs and get them started again.
