The Skvader (Tetrao lepus pseudo-hybridus rarissimus L.) is a Swedish cryptid made up by a man named Håkan Dahlmark in 1874, and later constructed by taxedermist Rudolf Granberg in 1918. It’s a combination of a European Hare and a Wood Grouse. It was formerly displayed at the Biologiska Museet which is listed as Permanently Closed sooo I have no idea where it is…… 🫥
ANYhoo just to explain why it’s more cartoonish - I went into this one planning on using it for 2022’s paper ornament.
[Fun fact: Fall is my favorite season and I’d never seen the leaves change color in person because “Florida”.]
