MemberIt's a "Wolpertinger" - pretty much the same thing like a jackolope. It's a creature from german (bavarian) folklore.
And the paintig is actually edited - the original is just a normal hare. I wouldn't have noticed it if the wings weren't so obviously shooped :o

Looks like someone edited out Albrecht Dürer's signature.
