What did you do with your hippo skull?

I have always been curious about this too…thanks for asking, I keep
forgetting to do so
 
I haven’t shot one but this upped my interest in doing so.

I just did a regular euro mount. Don’t have it in hand yet. Should be shipping soon. Once I get it, I will post up some pictures.
 
Dang! That really gives more perspective of what damage they can release on a person.

Simple presentation. The oak base is 2.5 inches thick and was made by a friend.
 
Hi all - Just seeking ideas for a hippo skull. Any ideas?
I've just kept the tushes (teeth) but never the skull. It would make a great conversation piece. Maybe the next time I am forced to shoot one for bait I'll bring one home.
 
This is the last I saw of my last one that went MISSING then supposedly got destroyed ?

Next to it is a true Monster Bull, I must check where it went !

Breaks my heart as I collect skulls & something keeps happening to keep me from getting one home, even lost a Elephant Skull I had lined up, but it was the paperwork holding that up (and cost of shipping)
 
I put the teeth from one of my hippos on a plaque and gave them to my dentist. He got a kick out of the gift. I think….

You have the wrong person. I have no idea what you are talking about..

I have been using a "Personal Property" rider on my State Farm homeowner's policy to cover guns when I travel with them.
I have several firearms, but only one is worth over $20K (A Heym double rifle).
Very interested.
Would firearms be covered for damage, as well as, complete loss?
I'll can let the State Farm rider cover my watches...
