I thought that end table was the coolest.

Hippo Skulls are the coolest mount. Especially ones with a .458" hole between the eyes.

This is a photo of a mount I found while searching for something else. I saved it just in case I shoot a hippo one day as I thought this was the best looking hippo shoulder mount I've seen. It doesn't look like it has a barrel for a neck.

I gotta agree Wendell; I had some friends from Barcelona over this weekend and their boys thought my hippo skull was pretty cool.

Teeth displays never did it for me.

The hippo mount is cool, but takes up a ton of room.

End table gets my vote! The wooden, home made board is also very nice.

Beautiful hippo tusk arrangements. I am going to develop my gun cupboard, can anyone suggest gun placing in cupboards.
