🧑‍🤝‍🧑Mascot: "Bonnies"

The Bonnies might not be a mascot in the traditional sense, like an animal or a superhero, but it's still a unique and cool part of St. Bonaventure University's identity. The term "Bonnies" is basically a shortcut for St. Bonaventure, and it's been used for so long that it's just what everyone calls the school's teams. While the Bonnies themselves aren't a person or character, the school has had some interesting mascots over the years, like the Bona Wolf, which is inspired by a legend about St. Francis of Assisi taming a wolf🐺. So, even though "Bonnies" is more of a nickname, it's tied to a rich history and some pretty fascinating stories. And, fun fact, it's most well-known in New York, where St. Bonaventure University is located📍.
