Odd looking Cottontail

[onthejob2]

My brother snared this rabbit earlier this year. It seemed to have horns that were growing out of its head, 3 of them? The "horns" weren't as hard as antlers, more like real stiff leather. Anyone know what causes this? Or have seen this?

there was something on this a while ago here on FM, I believe it is a growth that happens on the rabbits. like a reaaalllly bad case of moles....

Yep known as papiloma virus (warts). They are common along the river in St. Cloud area also. Some of them get looking pretty scary.
