This is the current Status of my Warthog Skeleton.

I have shot the sow in November and received the dip&pack Skeleton in March.

Since the bones were still greasy, but not overboiled, I did some more degreasing and whitening on the bones and the skull.
The bones were requested like this by me.
It’s easier to degrease the bones for me, than working on overboiled and brittle bones

This week i started with the articulation of the spine and the Thorax :)

If there i some interest in this project ill Update this thread when i have build more of the Skeleton / finished it

Very interesting !
 
Very cool. Looking forward to seeing the progress.
 
First trophy warthog Skeleton I've ever heard of.
Keep the updates coming.
 
Agreed … 1st project of this type I’ve came across & what a cool idea/project!! You may have started a NEW trend …

Would you be willing to share your secret sauce for the degreasing & whitening? The whitening & texture is very nice …

Cool stuff!

I have no idea the shipping cost from here to Costa Rica. I can do my research on shipping and get back with you later today.

I didn't see your request re: ship co’s. My last shipment was 2023. Quotes from SBS Logistics ($1,198), Badger Cargo ($1,184 - used them) & AHG Trophy Shippers ($1,746). AHG owner's an asshole so wouldn't have used him anyway. Eastern Cape - Houston, TX, so your mileage may vary. NEVER use Karl Human Taxidermy aka Wild Africa Taxidermy on Eastern Cape. Trophies arrived shattered with no padding/packing material.
