It is a combination of two birds, the jay torments intruders, and the hawk kills them. Prior to the Civil War and the admission of Kansas to the Union, the pro-slavery forces in Missouri attempted to make Kansas enter as a slave state. At every local election hundreds of armed Missourians invaded the territory in an attempt to control the elections. Kansans armed themselves to resist these intrusions. One of the most active commanders of these home guard units was C.R. Jennison and his company was called Jennison's Jayhawkers. Supposedly it started as the nickname for one man who said he was "jayhawking". im pretty sure there right but i thought the jayhawk was a sparrow hawk and blue jay
