Full size lion on wall ideas?

[Ryanlo]

Daughter and I have our first African trip planned for 2019. Looking for ideas for a full size lion mount. We have two house cats so wanting to put it up on a wall. Anyone have any ideas or pictures?

FYI, are you aware of the current import restrictions on Lions into the USA?

 

[Ryanlo]

Yes. Hoping by 2019 it will be changed. Just looking for ideas incase all goes well.

I've seen some great looking mounts of mountain cats on rocks or some other diorama. I'll bet a lion would look just as pretty

Great idea! I prefer mine on the wall as well

2years ago there was a mount at DSC convention of a lion jumping, it gets hooked on the wall on its side by the stomach.... cant find the pic, if anyone has it please post it. Think the taxidermy was Splitting image taxidermy

Dennis Harris has one on the taxidermy picture link jumping on a zebra--that jumping pose would be awesome coming off the wall..

I hope its in time before new legislation passes in SA, because that is going to push up the lion price to ridiculous heights.

Regulations for lion areas are changing a lot, which will cost the areas a few million to get up to the new standard. Also the new regulation will force a lion area to hunt a max of probably 10-15 lions per year, where they used to hunt a lot more.

So to cover cost of upgrading to new regulations, as well as still having it worth while, the number of lions available to hunt will have to cover the cost of all the other lions that cant be hunted anymore to keep an area operational, and that will make a lion a lot more expensive, and would also need to book it way in advance if you want one as the supply would be very low to the hunting market, even though theres a lot of lion.

Hope it makes sense..
