His thinning mane signify's a male well past his prime. A great one to take.

What caliber for a Walter? I'd think that a 22. Short would suffice.

It looks like there was a bit of hair slippage with the mount. I would have had my taxidermist get a better looking skin.

But one also has to take into account that those teeth don't look adequately worn. The mane thinning is likely due to poor genetics!

Is he past his prime and losing his mane or is he a special genetic breed that offers a very unique mane color.

nice mount, but the face isn't right. hard to find a taxidermist that can get a walter face right.

also, what's the unicorn horn on the left side of the photo?

Like when mounting an old Bear with no teeth left to speak of, I wouldn't have gone the extra money for the open-mouth pose.

Don't think I'd have gone with the full body mount, maybe just a European-style, at least until I got a better specimen...

Saeed, I think you should contact your taxidermist to make sure you got the right one, I know some hair slippage is normal but that does not look like the same animal that I saw in your video.

I do applaud your trophy selection, definitely well past breeding age.

Big Grin

In all seriousness, a very nice mount!

clap That wasn’t an accident! Saeed pushed Walter and the impala into the leopard’s cage to feed the leopard because Walter screwed up the mailing list for Saeed’s hunting DVDs.

I think the leopard knew what would happen if Walter caught it. Nine months from now we'd have a litter of walpards. I'd be jumping and twisting getting the heck out of there too!

I know we are suppose to only take animals past their breeding age, but an exception should have been made in this instance.

This will make Mark Sullivan jealous, for sure!
Walter is looking so manly there, demonstrating the proper technique of bare-handed leopard hunting.
Letting the leopard decide how he wants to die:
By Walter's teeth or by Walter's claws?

Outstanding.

Now wouldn't you think that the taxidermist would've removed that ugly hairy growth coming out of the leopards elbow sofa

The Walter's nose is pink, absolutely no black. THis Walter should not have been shot, you can't always judge the age of a Walter by the size of the mane and tooth wear....

Well, the impala and leopard are first rate. But, what happened with the monkey? (You look better behind a buffalo Mr. Walter.)

Looks like the taxidermist missed getting the hide stitched up completely over the stuffing at the belly.

Thank goodness that leopard mount wasn't rotated 180 degrees.

A few thoughts on this fine (?) specimen.

Clearly well past breeding age.
Outer Circle? No, not so much.
Mercy Kill.
Cull.
Mange?
His mane is a little thin on top, although, I am sure he has hair back to his nu.... ugh, I just threw up in my mouth a little.

Tell Walter that when he meets his demise that his wife has given you permission to have him mounted for your trophy room. Tell him that she has also told you that you can choose the pose. Big Grin Do you think that you could then convince Animal Artistry to stuff him? Fat chance!! rotflmo
