Warrington Jacks are a sub-species of the wellknown mythical hybrid Jackalopes. They are commonly found along the coast of North America throughout Canada and the Unites States. This species often makes its homes, or Colonies, in a variety of places. Warrington Jacks are a very adaptive species, making it possible for them to easily acclimate to any terrain or temperature. Whether you are on the ocean coast, or atop a mountain you have the chance to come into contact with this incredible species.
Contrary to popular folklore, this species is not a large steed, ride-able by men. In fact, they are comparable in size to that of a small dog. Weighing in at only 9KG, or 20LBS. These animals are large in comparison to their distant cousin the Scrub Hare, but overall a small critter not well used in riding or combat.
Warrington Jacks have a unique way of hunting for food, and do so unlike Rabbits, Hares, or any Herbivore. Warrington Jacks infact are carnivorous in nature, preying on small mammals and birds much like to a domestic cat. They have teeth much similar to a dog or cat, and do not have rabbit-like teeth.
Kits, or Kittens are born in litters of one only. Females only have a reproductive tract large enough to carry one kit at a time, and all Jacks can only produce a total of 10 offspring in their lifetime. Kits reach an age of maturity at 3 years old and are able to show as full-grown rabbits with a mane and antlers. Kits are not born with Antlers, they start growth at about a year, and continue until they are fully grown at 3 years. Unlike regular antlers, Warrington Jacks never shed their antlers in the winter, they stay attached much like horns do even with the forked appearance of a deer antler.
Kits antlers are usually similar to their parents, which are the standard antler shape. It is rare that a kit will be born without growing antlers, or with antlers that do not mimic their parents. Depending on the blood-line of Jacks some antlers may be different, smaller or larger even appearing or mimicking other animals who have horns or antlers. If an antler is broken, they do not regenerate or grow back.
