Stephen Lagueux Posted January 28, 2013 Report Share Posted January 28, 2013 As a deer hunter myself, I was in awe when I got into this room. 2 canadian records in this picture. Click to Enlarge 82.67?KB Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AHI in AR Posted January 29, 2013 Report Share Posted January 29, 2013 Not meaning to hijack the thread, but I came across a similar trophy room Friday. Actually, it was an outdoor shop with lots o' dead critter heads hanging on the wall. Not being a hunter, I didn't recognize most of them. But I am most curious about what the animal in the photo is. I suspect it didn't come from this continent, but that's strictly a guess. Who can enlighten me? Click to Enlarge 78.03 KB Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kurt Posted January 29, 2013 Report Share Posted January 29, 2013 A type of gazelle, although the facial markings might be a little off. There's a few dozen types. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brandon Whitmore Posted January 29, 2013 Report Share Posted January 29, 2013 Kevin, It's a Gemsbuck/Oryx. It's an antelope native to Southern Africa, but can be huntedshot at game farms in the US. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John Kogel Posted January 29, 2013 Report Share Posted January 29, 2013 That oryx reminds of a billygoat that couldn't resist sticking his head through any hole in a wall or fence. Stephen, did you call for lag bolts to hold those heads up? [] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
David Meiland Posted January 29, 2013 Report Share Posted January 29, 2013 Just curious, Brandon, how did you know that? Best I coulda done was to guess "gazelle". Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
