That's a gemsbok who got caught tending another cow and his wife bitch-slapped him so hard it knocked his horn wonky. He took your bullet with aplomb and relief to be finally rid of the life that had become nothing but a rote exercise of dish washing, house projects and yard mowing.

I would say it's a picture of a mounted non-typical Oryx of some type hanging on the wall of someone's trophy room, along with a few other items such as a couple of guns, a picture of a hunter with his Brown Bear, and 4 duck calls! Big Grin

A nice collection of duck calls, hung on the same hook as an oryx tail swish, located just below a great brown bear trophy photo, and above and to the right of a .22 caliber semi-auto Thompson replica, and below and to the right of a double barreled shotgun of unknown make, and behind what appears to be a drunk and disorderly fringe eared oryx?

One of the duck calls may in fact be a goose call as the lanyard that the call is tied to also has what appears to be 7 or 8 goose leg bands.

The goose call call appears to be a Scoby? Smiler

Oh, and a Beisa oryx that was taken by bulldogging.

Thompson is a 45 cal. kept behind my desk in case I need to spray the room

wooden call was my Dad's
duck bands not goose bands

Taxidermsit smashed the trophy and had to remake the horns from Play-Doh. Your central heating feeds into that corner of the room.

Good humor and Thank you.
Here is the Story: 2005
Hunting with Bundu in Masiland Tan. Booked by our friend Wendell (who loves horses)
Charles Horsley was my PH. We were looking at this Fringe-Eared Oryx, Charley says he only has one horn, I say no he has two and I want him. (My Bino's were better than his)
I now have a very different Fringe-eared oryx which I love this kind of animal.
2 years later Taxidermist tells me the hair slipped and he could not mount it. I tell him to keep the ears. Never could find another Fringe-Eared cape so I opt for gemsbok they are a little differnt in the face, not much but marking different. So its a Fringe-Eared Gemsbok Smiler Just got it back with my Roan.
And you call youselfs experts Smiler Good Fun.

It's a picture of an ugly dude with a bear.

Oh, the animal in front of it is a FEO as everyone else has stated.
