Jackalope

Watercolor.
The Jackalope is the icon of magical creatures in America. As a kid going on roadtrips through the west, I saw these critters everywhere. Mostly as taxidermied heads on walls of roadside restaurants, gas stations, and the like. They are also sometimes spotted in the forms of sufferers of The Shope papilloma virus, which leads to large, warty growths sprouting from poor rabbit flesh. The Jackalope is Wyoming’s official mythical creature and one of our most famous cryptids.

ジャッカロープはアメリカの有名な未確認動物です。子供の頃、ロードトリップで、この怪物の剥製された頭をよく見た。ショープ乳頭腫ウイルスにかかったかわいそうなウサギもいる。ワイオミング州の公民された神話の動物です。
