#2 Grade South African Spring Hare skull (Pedetes capensis) measures approximately 3-1/2 inches long and 2 inches wide.  This is a discounted/damaged skull - it may have damage, missing teeth, discoloration, holes, etc. - Review all photos carefully. The South African springhare or springhaas is not actually a hare, but a member of the order Rodentia.  It is one of two living species in the genus Pedetes, and is native to southern Africa.  The springhare resembles a small kangaroo (though unrelated) with well-developed hind legs, which allow it to leap over 2 m (6 ft 7 in).  It is for this ability that it gets its name.  All of our springhare skulls are commercial grade and imperfect.  They will have imperfections due to the natural aging process and living in the wild--scars, blemishes, rub areas, broken/missing teeth, bug bite marks, etc.  These springhare skulls have been cleaned and cleared for legal entry into the United States by the U.S Fish and Wildlife Service and U.S Customs.
