I just looked out the window and saw a whole passel of these odd looking critters in the backyard munching away on my jalapeno peppers and now I'm scared to death to step outside.

Anybody know what it is ?.......are they dangerous ?Jackalope # 2.jpg
 

Ike, you are wise to be afraid. This is a fine example of the highly poisonous North American antlered killer rabbit. Socially engineered in the 60's to drive off hippie squatters from valuable land, they have since spread unchecked, and are now a pernicious threat. Fearless, quite mad, they will attack without warning, leaping for your jugular with their six inch incisors. They produce a neurotoxin which, entering a victim's bloodstream, causes complete paralysis in sixty seconds, enabling this
vicious predator to consume it's victim alive.
 
Looks like a Jackalope to me. Dangerous? Haven't a clue but if they are snacking on your jalapenos they must be tough little critters.

Love your sense of humor!
 
Ike, I'm afraid what you have there is a Mexican Jackalope. It's a member of the Jackalope family, as Helenbacque mentioned, but Jackalopus Mexicanus is far more dangerous than its American cousin.

For starters, it migrates into this country illegally, hopping over the border at unregulated spots such as dried river beds and taco stands. President Trump had mentioned the need for a JackaFence, but it was shot down in the House.

The example you have there must be an albino, because they normally look like this:

These poor creatures come to this country for food and work but are usually attacked and clubbed, being mistaken for piñatas.

One group called Save The Jacks, based in Texas, is trying to purchase large plots of land that will be known as JackaLots to offer sanctuary for this endangered specie.

Unfortunately, if Trump's bill passes, everyone will be trying to run the Jacks off.

Omg! PS. Perhaps we should defer the wedding until after you have completed a through psychiatric evaluation?????
 
I'm now thinking about selling the house but because the infestation seems to be increasing by the minute I'm afraid of rapidly decreasing property values......What should I do ?

You might qualify for a government grant to start one of those sanctuaries. Heck, you might even make some money breeding them, or come up with a new variety ... the Ikealope!

... I hear they taste like chicken ...
