Hob&Jill 258 Posted February 21, 2010 Report Share Posted February 21, 2010 (edited) I was given this a few months back, I dont know much about taxidermy but it looks like a good piece, well proportioned etc. Does anyone know what it actually is? Ive looked on the internet at different african deer etc but havent found anything that looks the same. If someone could let me know what species it is, it would be appretiated. Any ideas what its worth? They seem to go for good cash on ebay. atb, HJ Edited February 21, 2010 by Hob&Jill Quote Link to post Share on other sites

littlefish 598 Posted February 22, 2010 Report Share Posted February 22, 2010 That looks handsome. When I read the title I was expeting to see a really bad example of the taxidermists craft...........something so bad that it looked like it had been scraped off the motorway surface after rush hour and you were looking for guesses as to what it was .
