Weird! Is that one skinny oryx? Maybe this is a nutritional issue?
 
Wow! Hope that's not a genetic predisposition! Hard to believe she is old except for the length of those. She has survived well!
 
Thanks for sharing, always cool to see pics of these types of things!
 
Amazing length to those horns. Beyond the shape.
 
I like odd critters like this one.
 
Germans would be beside themselves over this..
 
I would shoot that one in a minute. I would have a lot of fun telling my friends about the long and excruciating hunt for the very rare and elusive droop horn oryx!
 
Strange and very interesting !
 
I would love to have it beside my other one - I could tell my customers they were "his & hers" oryx! I a sure I could convince everyone!!!
 
To hard to mount the horns on the wall. It would suck a lot of space up in the trophy room.
 
Third one from the left , this one is from 2005 in Namibia. Was kinda weird they culled it the next day.

Hi Paul,
This is Daniel from Mankazana Safaris.

I saw your post regarding a hunt in Africa. I am sure you have been bombarded with messages and replies from other outfitters, so I will keep this one quick.
I have a feeling we have exactly what you need for a first safari.
If you'd like to hear more, please don't hesitate to reach out.

Yours sincerely,
