Warthog Taxidermy Pictures

Somebody did a lot of work on this
 
Wow, yeah somebody put some time in here
 
Very cool. I recall seeing a trophy room photo from a European aristocrat. A lot of the skulls were decorated in some manner.
 
Someone is quite an artist. Forrest
 
Nicely done.
 
Cool, love the wood plaque as well!
 
I recently picked up my warthog from my taxidermist because I decided to keep him as a Euro display instead of shoulder mounting it. I made a base for it using rebar and a piece of wood I had lying around. Proud of my wart hog. I think he was a lefty :)

Very nice. If I get a warthog this summer, I'm thinking about getting it bronzed like @Bhfs300 did:

Nice !
 
I like the rebar base - good job. Some don't seem to like the tusks bleached out like the skull but I think yours looks good.
 
They both look great and inovative,thanks for sharing
 
Looks very nice Archer
 
It is a great trophy and is displayed pretty nice too!
 
Super hog!! Lots of mass!
 
Rebar & cedar stain.... You wouldn't happen to be from TX would you?!?!? :Finger:
 
The base I made from Wenge wood from Africa mounts the skull so the front is higher than the back so it raises the tusks up higher to show them off. Here are a couple of pictures of the base. The skull sits down into the sides and there is just one screw going through the base of the raw.

My warthog from Namibia

Great warthog I brought the cape to the states but in the time it took decided I would rather have the bronze instead. To anyone reading this that caused me to have two crates and I had to have the cape re-insecticide and I didn't use it. It sat in customs for a week longer. Motel of the story don't bring the cape back unless you are sure you are going to have the warthog shoulder mounted.
