Replica jackrabbit.

World's Largest Jackrabbit

Field review by the editors.

Odessa, Texas

Built in the 1960s, he's eight feet tall and is named "Jack Ben Rabbit."

The rabbit had been moved into storage in a maintenance yard from the old Prairie Pete Park. Public protest at its absence forced it to be returned to a new location, in front of the Ector County Independent School District Administration Building in downtown Odessa.

The plaque there includes a recipe for Jackrabbit and Dumplings.
