    Texas Nilgai - Rifle choices

    My 2c as a Texas hunting outfitter. Shoot the biggest rifle you can accurately shoot. 300 WM is a great starting point but I like 9.3 or 375 even better. They are absolutely tough and it’s not just feathers being blown up the preverbal arse. I’ve seen them eat some pretty big rounds and shake...

    What does everyone do with boar or warthog tusks to prevent splitting?

    I use bondo mixed with fiberglass resin. It will make a runny slurry then pour it into the inside of the tusk. Once it hardens you are good to go.

    Horn-only mounts?

    There is no "extra permit" for warhogs or monkeys. All it is, is they require a brief quarantine period once in the states prior to shipping to a USDA facility. It is because they are trying to prevent the spread of certain diseases primates and swine carry that we do not have or do not...

    Capes destroyed and useless

    Of course I don’t have them in my hands to look at but from the pics they do not appear to be unusable. Looks like a little grease burn but believe me I’ve dealt with a lot worse. All things considered they look pretty good. About 80% of all the taxidermy I do is African and I get capes in a...

    absolutely floor pedestals save a ton of wall space and allows for animals to be placed in dead space areas in a room. The little guys on fbm do the same and they can be placed on things like tables, shelves, and mantles

    They really don’t take up much more space wall space. You bet on a shoulder mounted buffalo it’s going to take up a 4x4x4 wall space. It may vary 6-8” one way or another witching the dimensions depending on whether it’s a wall ped or regular and the head position.
