Puzzle Description:

It's a jackalope! I remember being very impressed when I saw one that had been stuffed and mounted, back when I was a kid.

LOL, just looked up jackalopes on the web, you learn something new and wonderful every day. Excellent puzzle, had some tricky bits at the end, great picture, loved it :)

Ah, the noble jackalope looks out across his arid domain!

The one you saw stuffed and mounted was probably a fake. They are danged near impossible to kill or capture.

I remember searching out jackalope postcards when I was a kid. Love them. Love your puzzle.

I thought it was a white-on-black tree up until the end. Very cool!

I seem to recall a variety show in the 70's that occasionally had a jackalope sketch. Between "Captain & Tenille" and "Donny & Marie" shows, one had a jackalope that eluded hunters; the other had a bionic watermelon that solved crimes.
