Anatomically Correct Jackalope

The jackalope is a mythical animal of North American folklore described as a jackrabbit with an antelopes horns. It's a popular mythological creature in hill folk culture and it made me ask a question, why don't animals other than Ungulates commonly have antlers? Why would animals such as rodents, fish and primates evolve antlers? What conditions would support the addition of these features?
