Apart from other humanoids

And other, mythologically-based evil entities (wargs, dragons, goblins, wraiths, kraken-like things, nameless beasts, balrogs), there are no "made up" creatures in Middle Earth of the fauna sort. Middle Earth should reflect our world, in that respect. Alien animals are about as far away from the spirit of Tolkien as I can imagine, and I doubt PJ would go that route.

My guess is that it is a large hare.
