I have only just opened this thread today and have to say that the taxidermist has done a ripping job of that bull = 10/10

Wow! That is an exceptional piece of work - coloration is the most realistic I've seen. It looks alive - I kept expecting the eye to blink...

Very nice bull, btw - congrats!

Found this old post while looking for some taxidermy examples.

Gryphon, should stop grinding his teeth and come back. Many mornings are bright and sunny, eh?

Positiveness is a good way to live life.

I must source those Fjold photos and load them up on our server to get rid of those awful photobucket tags. That company never learns a lesson in how to service customers and potential customers.

Great taxidermy. One of the best Buff mounts I have seen.

Congratulations on a fine animal. With the grey face, solid meeting horn boss he looks old. Do you have any idea of his age?

Great taxidermy! Now the question is how well will it hold up over time.

This is my last buffalo, taken in Kenya in 1975, just before the hunting ban went into effect.

This is the head mount, almost 44 years later.
