My hippo

I found this pedestal on Facebook Marketplace and added the Africa cutout and the photo for my
hippo from Zambia.

It will be placed in a bookcase.
I wish I could find an American taxidermist who could do the fitted silver bases to tusks like they are done in Spain. My Spanish wild boar are done that way, and it is very elegant.

I've never seen that style. Can you post a picture?

Hey my friend, I am returning to SA for a Cape Buffalo hunt in June 26. My outfitter has suggested Highveld but I have read some poor reports. Wondering how satisfied you were with your mounts from them? Thanks in advance.
Finally back to somewhat normal I missed reading the messages and posts

Hi PaulB,
I have a Ballard Arms Model 1885 chambered for .333 Jeffery Flanged. Do you have any idea where I can get ammo for this?

I am new to this forum so I am sorry if I am doing something wrong!
Thank You!
