I just came across this and am really surprised. never heard of it before. Has anyone here hunted on as an unusual trophy?

It's pretty funny that one of them was named Martina. I'm surprised the PC police over at National Geographic let that detail get into the article.

The article points to genetic variations that may have caused this. It would be interesting to know if these animals were able to have and raise young.

In Alberta I have seen 2 deer and 1 moose that were shot as bucks/bull until the hunters rolled them over and found they were missing vital bits.
A few years ago there was a fairly high profile case of a hunter who shot a polar bear that turned out to be a Polar bear/ grizzly cross. Scientists said it was not possible to have such a mix, until the genetic testing came back proving them wrong.


If you have that much to fight for, then you should be fighting. The sentiment that modern day ordinary Canadians do not need firearms for protection is pleasant but unrealistic. To discourage responsible deserving Canadians from possessing firearms for lawful self-defence and other legitimate purposes is to risk sacrificing them at the altar of political correctness."

For argument's sake, would the successful hunter be entitled to a substantial reduction in the trophy fee? Or, would he even be able to export the trophy, subject to his permit and license declarations?
